View from the Trenches: 2022 Offensive Line Preview

It’s that time again. We’re in a game week and it looks like the Syracuse Orange have established a pecking order in the trenches for their season opener against the Louisville Cardinals. For anyone who missed the depth chart released the other day, the starting line is as follows:

First String

Left Tackle - Matthew Bergeron (Jr.)

Bergeron has been a starter since his freshman year. He’s as penned in as any personnel on this team can be. A good run blocking tackle with a solid pass protection, his only slight weakness is his tendency to get stood up a bit more than ideally and some issues 1v1 in space, but easily one of the best lineman the Orange have seen in a long time.
