Syracuse Orange vs. Virginia Tech Hokies Analysis
There is no doubt the Syracuse Orange have been battle-tested. Their last three opponents are about as quality opponents as anyone has seen in a trio of games. The Orange have not played well, especially offensively, where they are scoring just eight points per game during that stretch.
The offense is 70th in College Football with 28.6 points per game. The quarterback for the Orange has been Garrett Scrader, who has eight passing touchdowns, with two to Umari Hatcher. LeQuint Allen has been the man at running back, with 106 carries, 511 yards, and seven touchdowns on the season.
The Orange, following this game, will have back-to-back home games against Boston College and Pittsburgh before a road trip to Georgia Tech. Syracuse will end with a home game against Wake Forest. Syracuse needs just two wins to become bowl-eligible. The Syracuse football stats have not been pretty in October, and they look to fix that with this affair.
Hokies’ Bowl Eligibility Chase
Speaking of bowl eligible, that is the goal for the Hokies as well. They will need three out of their last five games. When making your NCAAF picks, keep in mind that the Hokies have back-to-back road games at Louisville and Boston College before their home finale against North Carolina State. Virginia Tech ends the season at Virginia on November 25th.
Virginia Tech is coming off a 30-13 win over Wake Forest, where their signal caller Kyron Drone tossed for 321 yards and two touchdowns. It was his best game of the season and put him over 1,000 passing yards on the season.
Looking at their college football players, Jaylin Lane is another threat in the offense, as he had a 75-yard scamper into the end zone in the game. He leads the team with five rushing touchdowns on the season.
Virginia Tech Football standings in the Atlantic Coast Conference will likely be right in the middle, but seeking six wins is a doable goal.
