Northwestern has the fewest returning starters in the Big Ten and they sure didn't look like a good team last Saturday. It's hard to judge exactly how good a team is going to be during the season from one game but I doubt that we will see any of our remaining opponents play such inept pass coverage. Inexperience might have had a lot to do with their defensive performance but it seems like Pat Fitzgerald has got a lot of work to do to lead this team to a winning record (7-5).
 
I loved our offensive performance last weekend but I don't expect to see SU pile up that kind of offensive yardage again. We were in a situation where we had to throw the ball and everything really clicked for the Cuse during our comeback.
 
I'm driving to Jersey for this weekend's game and am hoping Syracuse can upset Southern Cal. I think we are going to see a much different offensive approach against the Trojans. They have a great group of defensive backs and I expect Marrone to try to attack them with a short passing game. Nassib isn't going to have the kind of time to throw he had last week and it is going to be a lot tougher to get open on deep routes against this unit.
 
Go Cuse!
