We’ve been down this road before — an undefeated start followed by a disastrous finish for the Syracuse Orange football team.
The Orange in 2022 sprinted to a historic 6-0 start, then crashed back down to Earth with six losses in the program’s final seven games. Fast forward to this season and Syracuse fans observe the same situation — a 4-0 start to the 2023 season, the first out-of-conference sweep in program history and the 20th-best ranking according to ESPN’s College Football Power Index heading into this weekend’s game versus the Clemson Tigers.
