The Syracuse football team has shot themselves in the foot too many times this season and now sit at under .500 at a critical portion of their season. The Orange have no one to blame but themselves for their struggles.
Which now puts SU in familiar territory, do or die. That’s the storyline heading into this game against Pitt. If the Orange lose and fall to 2-4, it’s time to stick a fork in this team as it pertains to a bowl berth. For what it’s worth, ESPN FPI Analytics suggest that Cuse is a 65% favorite and a three and a half point favorite in this game.
