QB coming off a concussion and my guess rib injury with an untested LT and the two best WR's gone, and a RB coming off of injury.   Before the LT quit they were 106th in tackles for loss allowed.   Also 105th in 3rd down conversions, SU's defense is 8th in the country in 3rd down percentage defense.
 
Not good for them.
 
MD's Defense still playing short handed on the back end and now losing their MLB. 
 
This sets up to be another ugly, field position low scoring punt fest.  In the words of Shafer, a Sexy game.
 
For SU right now all of its problems begin and end with the pass game.   Even with a very inefficent pass game SU has run the ball well.    If MacDonald can figure a way to help Hunt the receivers, maybe use the run game threat with some play action early, and get it from beyond ridiculous to functional, SU can have a solid run the last 3rd of the year.
 
Just like last year it's only one factor that is really lacking, last year it was the run game.  If they can get the pass game going at all it's 3-1 to end the year, and in position to match last years record.
