Both have the defensive players/athletes in place to implement Narduzzi's approach.

They can both create havoc with their DL against our OL and both teams have CB's that can play tight man--especially Syracuse. I think FSU might be young at CB.

Both Clemson and Pitt showed the way to attack Syracuse's defense, albeit a little bit late: Pound Syracuse with the run game. They could not stop either Clemson or Pitt when it mattered.

But this is my biggest worry when we face Syracuse. What are the odds that Kelly will exploit their main weakness on D with a strong rushing attack?

in any discussion of the running game. We dont see that in practice but clearly they were getting very little push this past saturday. Was it because of Pitts scheme, the relative health of the OL, Kelly's insanity, some combination of all three? My vote is that as the health of the OL goes, so does our running game.

Just my two cents.

The question is not, "What are the odds that Kelly will exploit their main weakness on D with a strong rushing attack?"

The question essentially is, "What are the odds that Kelly will substantially transform himself and admit that his approach is ineffectual?" The odds are nil.
