College football expert Brett McMurphy of actionnetwork.com recently came out with some early projections for the 2023 bowl season, and he has included Syracuse football in his predictions.
McMurphy, one of the best in the business, is forecasting that the Orange will suit up in the Military Bowl, which takes place in Annapolis, Md., against Navy out of the American Athletic Conference.
This would be a virtual home game for the Midshipmen, whose campus is located in Annapolis. In the 2022 campaign, Navy finished at 4-8 overall. Syracuse football, meanwhile, was 7-6 in the most recent stanza, falling to Big Ten Conference member Minnesota in the 2022 Pinstripe Bowl, 28-20.
