Our national perception is that we’re a joke that nobody takes serious.  On twitter i follow all the good, general, CFB accounts and whenever Syracuse is mentioned, which has been a lot this season due to having a top offense and defense, we get absolutely clowned in the comments.  There are a few people who have actually watched us this year and last and make a positive comment, but the rest are basically made on perception. One of the lines i’ve seen several times is “Syracuse always starts out fast and then collapses”, or “Syracuse pads their schedule early and then lose whenever they play someone good”. You know if college football fans in general are thinking this then your high school kid is thinking this.  Unfortunately, we have a long road ahead to get any sort of national respect back. It’s going to take more than 6 or 7 win seasons.  Hell we cracked the top 15 last season and are on the cusp of doing so again and it’s like it never even happened. A big win against a Clemson/FSU/UNC will also go a long way as well.
