Will the Orange Go Bowling? Staff Predictions for Syracuse-Boston College

The staff predicts the outcome of Syracuse’s matchup with Boston College.

via Rant SportsFollow The Fizz on Twitter for the latest SU football news

The Fizz writers come together to give you their predictions about the final Syracuse matchup of the season. Who do you agree with? Do you think Syracuse can grab the W?

D.A.: Syracuse Wins, 24-22

When the schedule first came out, a final weekend vs. BC at home seemed like an easy win assuming Syracuse wasn’t absolutely awful. The Eagles were coming off of a dismal season, a wretched three years of recruiting under Frank Spaziani, and were trying to break in a first-year head coach. Now, it’s anything but. The Eagles are already bowl eligible, Steve Addazio has them playing hard every week, and running back Andre Williams is a Heisman candidate. It’s a one-game season for the Orange, and Scott Shafer needs to prove his squad can play for him when it matters most. Syracuse will pull this out on the strength of a strong ground attack and an opportunistic defense. Syracuse becomes bowl eligible with a 24-22 win.

Kevin Fitzgerald: Syracuse Wins, 27-21

Syracuse has one more shot to become the 11th bowl eligible team from the ACC. The odds look as if they’re stacked against the Orange, with no Sean Hickey to protect Terrel Hunt on the offensive line and a 2,000-yard back in Andre Williams coming to town. But on senior day, Jay Bromley and his defense will be able to rally the troops one last time. Williams has rushed for over 2,000 yards because of his ability to absorb tackles. He’s a flat-out monster. But Syracuse has still not allowed a tailback to rush for 100 yards all season. On their home turf, expect the Orange to pull one out to become bowl eligible: Syracuse 27, Boston College 21.

Brendan Glasheen: Syracuse Wins, 23-17

The Orange has been a resilient bunch all season when its back is against the wall. All the talk has been surrounded around Eagles RB Andre Williams. Not to take anything away from Williams’ outstanding season, Syracuse has the numbers on its side. SU is one of just three FBS schools to not allow a 100-yard rusher this season. Chuck Bullough’s defense is fourth in the ACC against the run. With bowl eligibility on the line, Syracuse turns to its defensive leaders like Jay Bromley, Marquis Spruill and Durrell Eskridge to get over the hump. The defense has carried the load all year long and it will come up big one more time. Senior day in the Dome provides some extra motivation. The defense leads while Jerome Smith stands out and continues his offensive MVP-like season.¬†No guarantee for a bowl even with the W, but Syracuse prevails 23-17 over BC.

Seth Goldberg: Syracuse Loses, 24-10

The Orange has a tough task at hand this weekend. The loss to Pittsburgh last weekend took a huge toll on the Orange, the team seemed defeated, and they may not be able to get up off the mat. With BC, the Orange defense will be tested on the ground by Andre Williams. Williams has already rushed for over 2,000 yards on the season and has run over 200 yards in six of 11 games this year. The rush defense has been the strength of the Orange, allowing about 133 yards per game. But Williams will hold his own even against a strong Syracuse run defense. On offense, the Orange will not be able to score enough points. The offense has simply lost too many pieces at this point. The injuries to Brisley Estime, Prince-Tyson Gulley, Jarrod West and now Beckett Wales are likely too much to overcome for Terrel Hunt and the Orange, even with a strong ground attack remaining with Jerome Smith, George Morris II and Devante McFarlene. This could be the final audition for Hunt to be the starting quarterback next year. While the Orange could beat BC, the combination of still overcoming last week’s tough loss and Andre Williams punishing Syracuse on the ground will send the Orange to a loss, 24-10, and a 5-7 record on the year.

Zephan Mayell: Syracuse Loses, 27-17

Unfortunately, I do not see the Orange winning this football game. Andre Williams will be too big of a force on the ground for the Eagles. The Orange had a great chance to reach bowl eligibility against the Panthers last week and squandered the opportunity. However, I expect the seniors on Syracuse to play their hearts out. Most of these seniors were here two years ago when Syracuse started 5-2 and did not make a bowl game. With a sour taste still in their mouths, these guys know they have one last chance to get to the postseason and not have a repeat of 2011. With the way the offense has been playing for the Orange, however, I see the Eagles winning this game by a score of 27-17.

 

Austin Pollack: Syracuse Loses, 35-13

Syracuse’s biggest focus is Andre Williams; the BC star running back is a Heisman hopeful. The Syracuse defense has been inconsistent all season, but was very strong against two ACC opponents, Wake Forest and Maryland. The defense gave up three points in those two weeks, but it was right back to a struggle against Florida State. If the defense can somehow stop Williams from going off, the Orange has a chance. He will find the open lane and run down the field because that’s how good he is. He has rushed for more than 2,000 yards this season, and could have a breakout game. It’s all up to the Orange defense to stop him. BC gets the win, 35-13

    This technology can also set a precedent for other games
    in connection with this, which may enhance the gaming experience overall for any
    large amount of gamers. Finally, we have the Play – Station 3 console from Sony.

    With this command, as well as lots, you’ll be able to turn your
    character into any monster or creature you want.
    Since the Xbox 360 allows as much as four wireless controllers operating using one console, it permits you to have fun with three other players simultaneously for that added fun and challenge in live competition. The
    red ring of death is really a rather common hardware failure of the Microsoft Xbox 360.
    The number 1 reason for red ring of death as said above may be the overall overheating
    of the console. The gateway machine is not able
    to provide its very own network address or way
    its very own Internet link. The size in the motherboard was decreased to allow greater space inside the console (30% room) and
    its particular internals were redesigned to feature greater
    operating stability and reduced noise output. Everything4360 moreover delivers one or
    two of added bonus that include how not to have banned from Xbox 360 live, the Red
    Ring of Death repair instructional videos and Xbox 360 live
    codes. With unlimited resources via its mother company, Xbox used billions of dollars for advertising and
    quickly popularity and in many cases caused among the many game console
    pioneers to get, Sega. The Kinect works off the motion of the body
    while using necessity for the controller.
    A company orator told journalists that Microsoft Company is “sketching up a plan to prove in public places that Xbox will be the unique”.
    The Red Ring Of Death is often a means of indicating the Xbox 360
    console has experienced a problem. There isn’t really any form of violence with this game, aside from killing some animals.
    Many folks are eagerly awaiting the release of Playstation 3, which might occur when November of
    the year. Here’s that which you do: look for a vendor that sells
    it you would like then save your game prior to buying it.
    The PS4 will be released in North America on November 15th,
    2013, whilst the Xbox One is going to be released on November 22nd.
    This game console is really a direct competition of Wii from Nintendo along
    with Sonys Play – Station 3 console. The game console just isn’t only
    perfect for gamers, but developers as well. As promised, we have
    been offering your 3 red ring of death fixes.
    Also, it is possible to avoid sending your console off for 5-6
    weeks, and paying Microsoft $200 to repair your console.
    The trouble is during intense action the heat sinks inside
    console become so hot that they can eventually melt the thermal compounds between your
    CPU and GPU. – Still in Create a Legend Mode is the
    capability to change your players’ accessories.

    Both problems originate from overheating,
    it’s just a different component around the
    motherboard that becomes defective. Well, there are plenty first along with the list keeps growing.
