Syracuse football opponents recap: Week 1

The Syracuse Orange won 55-42 on Friday night, earning a 1-0 start for the fifth straight season. But there are still quite a few teams ahead of us — and some pretty difficult ones, at that, on the way toward (hopefully) six wins.

Each week, we’ll be using this space to look at past and future foes on the 2018 schedule, and assess what’s ahead for the Orange. So how’d Syracuse’s opponents fare in week one? And how might that affect SU going forward?
