Message: [QUOTE="SWC75, post: 1923146, member: 289"] Why SYRACUSE will win - Because BC stinks. Their 3-3 record is a fraud. The three wins are over Massachusetts, Wagner and Buffalo. It’s like we played Colgate three times. The three losses are to Georgia Tech, Virginia Tech and Clemson by a combined 24-122, ((8-41). They were out-gained in those games by an average of 232-407. - We have one common opponent. We beat Virginia Tech 31-17. They lost to them 0-49. “But there is no transitive property in college football.” That’s a pretty big gap to be meaningless. - Our defense stunk early in the year but has been playing better as the season has progressed. The “keep them in front of you and close in numbers” scheme is beginning to work. BC won’t be much of a challenge for it. Even with UMASS, Wagner and Buffalo, they rank 121st in the country in producing yards and 113th in scoring. - Amba Etta-Tawo has been kind of low-key the last two games and we’ve used other weapons. We’ll go back to him- and the Eagles will still have to worry about the other weapons. - Nunes has an interesting interview with a BC blogger: [URL="http://www.nunesmagician.com/2016/10/19/13327310/syracuse-vs-boston-college-football-preview-q-a-with-bc-interruption-orange-eagle-rivalry"]SU vs. BC preview: Q&A with BC Interruption[/URL] Some interesting quotes:” Not buying BC at all in this one. I think the offense is too inconsistent to put up points and the defense will again be exposed. I think Syracuse routs the Eagles 34-10…. Honestly it wouldn't surprise me if Addazio is canned by Sunday if BC goes out and gets pasted. If that happens, and this is just me guessing here I have no intel, I would bet Paul Pasqualoni finishes the season.” Q: We talking about the #OrangeEagle Trophy anymore? Or should we just enjoy its permanent residence in Central New York? A: “Just take it, our program is a mess. “ 3-4 with 5+ to go! LET’S GO ORANGE!!!! [/QUOTE]
