Of course, Syracuse looks no more like a Power-Five team right now than the opponent, crippled by a roster that wouldn’t contend in the Sun Belt, let alone the ACC.
The team SU is suiting up is ill-equipped to compete against most schools. About half are freshmen who are physically overmatched. It now prepares to face a team stacked with future NFL players.
If Liberty can accrue more than 300 yards in the first half, imagine what top-ranked Clemson could do next week.
If Liberty’s backup running back can put up 142 yards and two touchdowns on his first five carries, imagine what Travis Etienne, a Heisman Trophy candidate and the nation’s active leader in career rushing yards, could do next week.
