'Cuse and UConn tonight at 8pm.

[Ricky the Bull]

Two future opponents are on ESPN2 tonight at 8pm with Syracuse (1-3, 0-1) playing the Huskies (3-1, 0-0) in Storrs.  UConn is favored by 6.5 points.

Except for their opening loss to WVa at home 15-7, the Orange's other two losses were to ranked teams Virginia and FSU.  They blanked Buffalo 31-0.

UConn's 3 wins have been against powderpuffs Buffalo (38-0), Liberty (59-0) and Army (last year still stings! - 47-13).  Their loss was at ranked (#23 at the time) GaTech 28-13.

So who should we root for??

uconn - because 'cuse seems to pose the only threat to us besides WVU, so if uconn beats 'cuse then that would make usf remain top in the conference - that is if we beat uconn, which we should.

What makes yout hink UConn is going to be a pushover?

I think UConn might be every bit as tough as Cuse.

It will be tough playing UConn in the frozen north, especially if a bowl bid is on the line

'Cuse has not shown that they will be all that tough.  Rutgers looks like they are better than the Orange.

I would root for U Conn right now, as U Conn is 0-0 and 'Cuse is 0-1 in Big East play.

Both games will be tough for us since they both are on the road.  It doesn't really matter at this point who you root for since we haven't played either of the two teams.  As long as USF keeps winning, it will take care of itself.
