Well we finally made the Top 10.  SU football is #7 in the latest USA Today college football misery index:

7. Syracuse: This is another program where a coaching change seems almost inevitable, whether it’s a good idea or not. Scott Shafer was a continuity hire after Doug Marrone left for the NFL, but he has slipped from 7-6 to 3-9 and now 3-8 coming to the end of his third season. Fair or not, continuity hires are graded on a curve, and Shafer hasn’t maintained what Marrone started.

Syracuse plays hard, particularly against good opponents, but it has won just one ACC game each of the past two seasons, both against Wake Forest. That isn’t going to cut it in an ACC that, if nothing else, provides a lot of opportunities for coaches to pad their records and get to bowl games without beating many quality opponents.

Syracuse has now lost eight consecutive games. The season finale against Boston College, which is also 3-8, may be one of the worst games in league history.
