I haven’t seen this level of optimism among the fanbase of the Syracuse Orange football program in quite some time. And frankly, Dino Babers and co. have earned it. Think about it - Syracuse might not have won the Purdue game in the fashion they did if this game took place a couple of years ago. The one-possession losses of 2021 still sting. The statement win against Louisville is exactly what the Orange needed to start the year on the right foot.
A 3-0 start and bowl projections sitting above 90% is something this fanbase has yearned for ever since the 10-3 2018 season.
