Syracuse Orange

The Orange will go flat out to take a conference win against Duke despite being the underdogs in this showdown. They also look to halt a four-game losing skid with the last two games ending up in lopsided fashion against Florida State University (17-35) and Boston College (27-58). Playing on the road is another problem for Syracuse Orange as they have lost their last three away games by an average of 22.3 points.

Players to watch: T De Vito QB (191 CMP, 298 ATT, 2,075 YDS, 64.1 CMP%, 7 AVG, 85 LNG, 15 TD, 5 INT); M Neal RB (113 ATT, 470 YDS, 4.2 AVG, 42 LNG, 4 TD); A Adams RB (73 ATT, 294 YDS, 4 AVG, 20 LNG, 3 TD); T.
