The temperature outside of the Carrier Dome was 84 degrees. Inside, it had to be close to 100. Complete dead air.

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.

Louisville took a commanding 21-0 in less than five minutes, scoring three touchdowns on just five plays.

The Cardinals blasted Syracuse last season 41-17 in a rare blowout conference win for Louisville.

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.
