Keep lowering everyone's expectation of Syracuse.  See what happens.  This defense will probably be among the three most physical defenses and may be the most physical in the ACC.  We have a ways to go to be the fastest, but our hitting will match up or beat anyone in the ACC.  
 
Our offense is fundamentally sound with much of the O-line intact and what is one of the best running back tandems (we may have two of the best running back tandems!) in the conference.  We only need solid caretaker performance from our QB, but I have a gut feeling our QB and receivers will perform much better than the pre-pre-pre-season prognosticators think.
 
Sure, I wish we were returning more starters, but our two deep is pretty good and we are still rebuilding. 
 
I think we make third in the Atlantic with a chance to upset one of Clemson or FSU a real possibility.  Clemson's Defense was not championship caliber, if our offense can get moving, we can stay in the game.  Tahj Boyd is for real, but we have faced great QBs the last several seasons.  FSU has Fisher coaching and he always has one or two bad game-day coaching days per season, though if we catch him on one of his good days, we may be hurting.
