3-1.

Have to say UNC is in ink at this point. That’s 4.

2 of the remaining 3 at home gets you to 6. All hard games but true peers at home. You should win more than you lose.

Of the four road easiest to hardest, SMU, GT, ND, Miami. Get 1 and 7 or 8 should be it.

If Collins is efficient and doesn’t turn the ball over can the run game and OL fill the void created with Angelli’s injury? That’s the key.

Need the defense to continue to improve. Don’t think they can be a shut down defense, but they do have some playmakers and did a really good job on key downs.

I would never put a belichick coached team in ink.
 
I know there's mixed opinions on GT but I think they're a really good team. Playoff is in play for them.
They’re a team that I want to see less of late in the year if they keep playing well. That’s the type of squad that can snowball down a mountain if momentum builds and become a wrecking ball.
 
Until proven otherwise I think our kryptonite is teams that play good D and/or teams that can run the ball well. I would be most worried about Pitt, GA Tech, Miami, Notre Dame, BC.

If we limit mistakes we should be able to outscore the other three teams. Really need to at least split the next two. Get to 4-2 going into the bye.

Also a team that snowball catches on fire (or some quote like that from GROB). The later we play them the better because their QB is getting killed out there.

BC?

They lead the country in passing, 132 in rushing.
 
the Miami we saw last night can be beat. The QB was awful.
Fortunately, the Miami game is a game that will disproportionately be affected by the coaching over talent. We have Brown, Miami has Cristobal.*. I like this matchup. Early prediction (assumes Collins progresses, I know, just take it to that thread) SU by 7.


* Marios Cristobal may be better than PP at having a "how did that happen" game.

Tom Brady thankfully isn’t suiting up. He was mediocre without Brady, and he’s washed up now. And his son is not a good coach for that position. Their staff might not be quite as nepo as the Clemson staff, but isn’t it comprise of a good number of retreads along with baby Belichick?
 
Any wins depend on Ricky. Until we see him play I'm not assuming anything.
I think he's clearly one read and run right now. He's not going to hang in and deliver the ball in the face of pressure. Angeli did that a couple of times in the Clemson game, Rickie did not and ran into the collapsing line.
 
One minute of "rah, rah, rah SU. Eight minutes of Clemson issues. I agree the coaching staff at Clemson is not likely to be the issue, they know what it takes to win championships and have done it. The players were lacking in general and Klubnik is overrated, has a bad day.

Of course, we know SU made Clemson have a bad day, but they already recognized Syracuse improvement, they are not ready to recognize Syracuse as a conference leader.
