GameThread: Syracuse Orange (3-0) vs. Connecticut Huskies (1-2)

The Syracuse Orange (3-0, 1-0) are in the middle of one of the program’s more impressive starts in recent memory, and now take aim at a 4-0 record when the Connecticut Huskies (1-2, 0-1) come to town. If you’re not catching this one at the Carrier Dome, you’ll be tuning in for a 4 p.m. ET kickoff on ESPNews/WatchESPN.

SU’s expected to win this one (by 27.5 points, says Vegas), but you also know your Orange well enough to expect surprises — both good and bad — can happen. However this one goes down, let’s just get the win. Please.
