We talk plenty about Syracuse Orange non-conference scheduling around here, especially with regard to how it shapes the future of the program.
After we (Sean, myself) preached the importance of manageable scheduling for most of this site’s existence, Syracuse has recently gotten on board as well. Orange AD John Wildhack himself even discussed as much at a recent alumni event in Los Angeles, (thankfully) remarking that SU won’t be out West to see UCLA/USC anytime soon.
Of course, not everyone is a convert, though. And for as much as fans like the wins, the allure of the upcoming schedules isn’t exactly at its peak aside from visits from conference foes like Clemson.
