I wouldn't worry so much about special teams.  Murphy is the dangerous returner and he's wearing a redshirt this week in practice for an undisclosed injury.  Meh.  Hunt had a nice return against the Vols but that wasn't him - the Vols completely whiffed.
 
For passing, don't underestimate the Tigers.  Berkstresser is a RS freshman who started 5 games because Franklin was injured and was benched against Kentucky.  It was the first time in his career Pinkel benched his starting QB during a game and it was for an obviously still injured Franklin who couldn't make a cut while jogging.  Berkstresser was unimaginably horrible.  Here's why the Tigers lost to Vandy;  Berkstresser was 9 of 30 for 189 yards.  85 of those yards came on 1 play where the defender fell down leaving the WR open by 15 yards.  As a RS freshman that's sort of expected but wow. 
 
Against Georgia, Franklin was 25/41 for 269 yards and 2 TDs. and reinjured his shoulder with about 7 minutes left.   I'd expect numbers somewhat similar this week.  Unless of course Syracuse has TWO Jarvis Jones clones.  Wow, that guy was as dominant of a defensive player as I've ever seen in college football.  People love Manti Te'o but wow, Jones is amazing.
