While no one is expecting Syracuse to win the Atlantic Division with Clemson, Louisville and FSU on board, history dictates that an early season setback is no reason to completely abandon the season.
While the program is promoting that Orange is the new fast, the Syracuse football team showed Friday night that the phrase refers to their offensive tempo and not the overall athleticism level of the team.
I’m not saying the win against Colgate means nothing. I’m just saying this Friday’s game against a ranked Louisville team will give fans a much better sense of where exactly this team stands.
