Fizz 5: Syracuse QB Austin Wilson Should Get First Team Reps

After Friday night’s silly ejection, Terrel Hunt shouldn’t have his spot guaranteed.

We’ve heard it all on the Hill the last few days. A win’s a win. It wasn’t pretty but they got it done. But this was Syracuse against FCS opponent Villanova. The Orange barely snuck out with a 27-26 win at the Dome. A missed field goal and failed execution by the Wildcats in OT helped SU pull this one out.

Scott Shafer doesn’t need to panic, and sometimes there are multiple moving parts, along with fresh playbook details in the mix.¬†But luckily Syracuse has a bye week to work with. Here’s¬†The Fizz¬†Five to break down areas of concern for SU and how it can hopefully fix its issues.

  • Tighten the screws on Terrel Hunt‚Äôs head

Dillon Lucas was a pain all night long to a handful of SU offensive players. The ‘Nova linebacker managed to get deep enough into Hunt’s head he eventually got punched. Hunt knows better. You’re finally handed the keys to lead the offense. Hunt even mentioned last week how he feels old in his leadership role. Hunt can learn he can’t make any more mistakes like this going forward. SU cannot afford its leader sitting on the bench for a non-football related purpose.

  • Austin Wilson should work with the starters

Wilson should continue to push and motivate Hunt. The gunslinger went 11-17 in his back up role. There are indications Wilson has a better arm and deep ball. Credit is due to Wilson for his gutsy relief stint. Coming in cold because of an ejection on opening night is no easy task. The kid should receive some opportunities with the first team offense. Shafer was right to support Hunt after the game, but he ought to push these two quarterbacks to the limit to bring the best out of them.

  • Continue to cement Ashton Broyld‚Äôs role

Broyld was listed as the starting halfback before last weekend. But the versatile receiver bounced all over the place. As the game progressed, Broyld continuously lined up on the outside. Ashton has the ability to get up and snag high throws. He’s still a WR weapon in George McDonald’s book. Syracuse has toyed with his role since he’s been on campus. He’s undoubtedly a wide out. Keep him there because it can work.

  • Trick plays should appear weekly

Riley Dixon’s connection with Kendall Moore to win the ball game was stellar. SU executed trick plays last year when Jarrod West hit Brisly Estime with a 25-yard touchdown pass to cap a third-quarter rally against Wake Forest. Syracuse has shown it can execute these gadget plays and throw teams off.

  • Don‚Äôt sleep on Central Michigan

The Chippewas scored 20 unanswered points after trailing 16-0 to beat Chattanooga over the weekend. Central Michigan had just one turnover and rushed close to 150 yards. QB Cooper Rush connected with six different receivers in the win. Syracuse’s defense struggled against Johnny Robertson of ‘Nova. Syracuse needs to Stay hungry.

    Today, while I was at work, my cousin stole my iPad and tested to see if it can survive a twenty five foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this is completely off topic but I had to share it with someone!

    My programmer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using WordPress on a variety of websites for about a year and am worried about switching to another platform. I have heard good things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress content into it? Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!

    When you declare war on journalists and the journalism profession, it shows the contempt you have for the people who put food on your table. Linus, your salary of Sh2.5 million comes from these people you have no respect for. Any media house, NMG included, is driven by what journalists write. NMG would not be what it is today were it not for us. Instead of appreciating the contribution we have made – we daily put our lives on the line to bring food to your table and other managers who have also shown contempt for us – you opted to rubbish the foot soldiers who are your pillars in the high office.
