For Syracuse, who steps up at linebacker, running back and wide receiver?

The Sports Sauna: Who the Orange Should Root for this Week

Hater of the Week goes to Casual Hoya, who dropped Syracuse to 7th.

To me, it still seems like there are more questions than answers. But make no mistake—Syracuse is in great position. Have they turned the corner? Perhaps not.
