Leonard Fournette is going to make life miserable for SU's defense Saturday.
Three weeks into the 2015 season, Syracuse's approach defensively is becoming clearer. It seems that the Orange have three primary objectives: to (1) stop the run, (2) pressure the quarterback and (3) prevent the big pass play. To do this, SU typically stacks the box with its front seven while its corners and safeties play it safe and sag off receivers.
This approach has holes, as it essentially means that getting a sack is Syracuse's only chance at stopping medium range throws.
