The Syracuse Orange (and most of us) felt that they could run the ball on the North Carolina Tar Heels on Saturday. Instead for the second game in a row, the Orange failed to create space inside for the running backs.
With the Florida State Seminoles up next it would make sense for Syracuse to want to run the ball and keep the Florida State offense off the field. The Seminoles are allowing teams to run for 144 yards per game and just gave up 209 on the ground to Virginia Tech.
