Depth Chart leading into opening day against PSU.
Syracuse football releases depth chart for season opener against Penn State | syracuse.com
Some things I like here. First....SU's first and second team are solid. Players who saw a lot of action last year. Yes SU lost a few from the O and D line. But this years version of O and D line will be fine. The RB's are going to be running down hill.
The D line will hold their own.
To help out the D line, all the LB corp return. They are going to be one of THE best LB groups in the ACC. A disruptive bunch that likes to blitz and has the speed to cover receivers. They play wide open and hit very hard. There will be some bells rung.
The question everyone wants to know...who is the starting QB. It doesn't matter. Terrell Hunt is better than Nassib. If Drew Allen did infact beat out TH, then SU will have a true stud taking snaps. Flush your SU QB concerns down the drain. TH is a good QB. I'm not sure Allen won it.
Everyone knows Smith and PTG. But seeing Ashton Broyld's name on the first team just sends shivers down my back. That guy is a stud. He'll be lining up outside more than in the backfield. If he gets the ball in open space....he can go to the house by going around and through people.
The kicking game is the same as last year. Everyone a year older and very capable. RS Freshman George Morris II earned the KOR duties and let me tell you...this guy is a threat to go to the house every time. GMII is going to shock people who don't know this team. He may be doing punt returns by seasons end.
jonvi's concern....TE and WR's are new and the huge question mark. Someone is going to have to breakout and I'm not sure who has the combination of skills and body for the D1 game. Teams will want to stack the box until an SU receiver shows consistency.
