Would Buffalo do a 2 for 1? 
I see no reason to play any Pac-12 teams until we are a consistent 7-8 win team. Going out West isn't necessary and the team isn't going to win in tough road venues on the West Coast. Mind you I loved the USC game in 2011 and remember that as our get of the Big East Saturday.
West Virginia just renewed the Backyard Brawl for 4 years and that is a legit CFB rivalry. We aren't going to play WVU in the regular season unless the Big XII expand to 12 and they reduce conference games to 8.
Rutgers would be a preferred opponent to UConn. Our AD falling behind in OOC scheduling is what caused this UConn series to even be signed for in 2016 and 2018. If we are going to be playing a Northeast school from the Big East days it should Rutgers.
From the rest of the Big Ten forget Michigan and Ohio State they won't play in the Carrier Dome due to size in 1-1s. Penn State would have played us but with the Big Ten going to 9 games and them having Maryland/Rutgers to kick around Syracuse becomes less likely on their schedule.
We just signed a home/home with Wisconsin and have played Iowa, Minnesota, Illinois, Northwestern in the last decade. That leaves Michigan State, Purdue, Indiana, Nebraska from the Big Ten we haven't played home/home.
The Prose Bowl with Northwestern is the one I would try to renew if I were in the SU AD.

We should schedule
1- P5 school preferred non-Pac-12
2. I-AA school that isn't a FCS power
3. MAC team
4. AAC/Sun Belt team

What is a Syracuse fan's favorite color?
