I like the Orange in this game, and I think the early sharp line movement backs that up. Despite 2 losses the Orange have played very inspired football under new coach Marrone. The defense has especially been surprisingly good. The final score doesn't do the Penn St game justice. They were in that game at Happy Valley until the 4th quarter, even Joe Pa, and several PSU players acknowledged Syracuse improvements from last year where they blew them out of the dome.
Marrone has done a good job of weeding out the roster, and he just has the players that want to play, work hard, and are disciplined. Marrone also called out the Wide outs this week for their dropped passes in big spots. WR was the be the strength of this team so I am excpecting a big week from them as well. With All Big East DT Arthur Jones clogging up the middle it should force Mike Kafka to air it out where he has 0 td's on the season. Should be a good way, GL with whatever you decide
