The Syracuse football team will head down to Death Valley to keep their undefeated streak alive against the Clemson Tigers on Saturday.

Who would’ve thought that when these two teams were scheduled to face off in Week 5 that we’d be discussing two undefeated titans meeting in the center of the octagon? The college football world can be a crazy place sometimes, but nonetheless that’s exactly what we have.

The Syracuse football squad is 4-0 for the first time since 1991 and it finally seems like things are starting to turn around. They can prove their legitimacy by playing a top-five team in their own building on Saturday against the Clemson Tigers.

While speaking of the Tigers, they’re undefeated (big surprise) and they likely have vengeance on their mind. That’s of course because the last time these two teams squared off it was the Orange who emerged victorious with one of the biggest wins in program history.
