Syracuse Football Sitdown with Chop Chat talking #CUSEvsFSU

Paul A. Esden Jr. (@BoyGreen25): 

Tell us about players that the media doesn’t talk about that could have a huge impact on this game?

Jason: Well, I mentioned Andrews and Izzo. Izzo has become a reliable target for true freshman quarterback James Blackman and as Fisher simplifies the offense for his new signal caller, simple passes to Izzo have been part of the game plan since.

Another name to look out for would be defensive end Brian Burns. Last year, the five star recruit from the Fort Lauderdale area as a true freshman had two and a half sacks against the Orange – part of an eight and a half sack year. Burns will be a part of a unit tasked with keeping Syracuse QB Eric Dungey in check.

Kelvin: Before the season I would have said Derwin James and Tarvarus McFadden would have been locks to be first rounders followed by Josh Sweat, Derrick Nnadi, Matthew Thomas and DeMarcus Christmas being drafted at some point. Who knows what will happen now that most of them have not had great years aside from Josh Sweat and probably Derrick Nnadi.
