Hard to know.   Allot of variables go into it.  If you look through a lens of prior performance and then allow for a factor of what could have been a reasonable uptick in performance expectations from the prior year you could maybe frame a range?  QB play, RB play, WR play, Defensive looks,  etc go into it though.  For the sake of providing a measure,  I believe Syracuse was ranked around 122 in pass protection/sacks last year.   That's out of 130 schools I believe.   The year prior they were 118.  Going off memory here so I may be off by a slot or two.  So based on those rankings, if Syracuse this year performed better and made it to 80 let's say that would be a great jump in performance but a rank of 80 is not necessarily a good slot to be out of again 130.  To me a very good line would jump Syracuse into top 30 territory.   Listen if they play very good, that's great...no argument from me.  I guess I try to calibrate my expectations a bit is all.
