If Syracuse has a nickname similar to the Tar Heels it would be frozen hill but I digress.

This is the prototypical trap game for the Orange. North Carolina comes in with only one win and have not been impressive. However coming off two straight heartbreakers we cannot afford to overlook anyone.

Now is the time for Eric Dungey to lead this Orange team into the future. Breaking the mold of an ACC bottom feeder and completing the ‘Quest for 6’.

To date the defense and running game have kept the Orange team in the past two games. To take the next step forward we need a total game. This team has the talent and the potential to win eight games, now is the time to stop talking and start doing. Orange get back on the winning track in a close one 42-37.
