Not sure how to feel about this

Stats are interesting to review

On D they are top 20 but only like 30 yds better than us at around 50th
On O they are number 1 but 100 yds better than us but only 12 spots ahead of us

The biggest thing is they turn yds into pts so much better. the top teams in pts all hit more HRs and get the big play scores

Make them earn pts and they make mistakes.

What hurts us is no pass rush all year.
 
I heard on ACC Prime that Miami's secondary is beat up and are an issue for them, but their dline looks scary with the pass rush. Our offensive line is going to have to have the game of their lives. Fortunately we've looked better of late there, well for the most part.

Scary pass rush? Run C gap, counter trey or off tackle while the DL only focus on pass rush. Throw in a reverse to Gill for good measure.

1-2 yards of LA running into the A and B gap despite breaking 3 tackles won't do it here. he's a stud but he needs help. any other RB showing vision we haven't seen from them this year would be very welcome this week
 
Wake win dominating time of possession, keeping the ball out of the hands of the UM offense. No question they are really talented and will score a lot of points.

One thing this Syracuse team is good at is running long, time consuming drives. Agree with Go. If we avoid turnovers and control the clock, we have a shot.
But that’s also the reason this team fails to convert yards to points. We require stringing 4 or 5 first downs together. That won’t cut it especially if we fall behind quickly.

Any really good offense has quick strike ability. This would be a good time to bust out general zod’s theme music.
