And that can only mean another craptacular campaign for theSyracuse Orange. Entering year 4 of the Greg Robinson reign of ineptitude I have no expectations. The o-line stinks, there is no one to catch the ball, and the defensive backfield looks dangerously overmatched. The only brightspot is the trio of running backs (Curtis Brinkley, Delone Carter, and Doug Hogue) and defensive lineman Arthur Jones. Last year I set the bar high and predicted a 5-7 record, which was naively optimistic. This year, I honestly don't see us going beyond 2-9, with potential wins over Akron and 1-AA Northeastern. Sadly, these aren't gimmies. And as of now, 'Cuse is an 11 point underdog to Northwestern. Gah. This year I'm hoping for the best, and prepping for the worst. And if things go bad, this has to be the last year for Stinko Robinson, right? Regardless, Go Orange!
