Troy Nunes Is An Absolute Magician: For Syracuse Orange Fans

The Syracuse Orange are 6-0. Oh and they’re ranked No. 14 in the country. Oh, and they now head down to Clemson to face off in an Atlantic Division battle that may decide the conference.

Is this one of the best homefield advantage in the country? What is the Syracuse offense doing well? Hint: motions and mismatches.
