Football Friday, Saturday Edition: Season Predictions

By Euclid 419er

Continuing with the Football Friday series, this week will feature season predictions by each of our writers, running Monday through Saturday.

In putting together my picks, I found that my predictions were not all that different than the rest of the crew, so I decided I could at least say them differently.  I give you my picks for the 2010 season…in Haiku.

September 4 – Syracuse @ Akron

Six hour road trip
And six hour tailgate means
A six TD show  

Syracuse 42, Akron 22

September 11 – Syracuse @ Washington

Home of Hendrix will
Leave ‘Cuse in a Purple Haze
The wind and I cry

Washington 27, Syracuse 15

September 18 – Syracuse vs. Maine

The Dome will serve as,
Maine’s Castle Rock spurring the
Next Stephen King book 

Syracuse 31, Maine 17

September 25 – Syracuse vs. Colgate

Rivalry reborn?
Hoodoo?  We do. Beat Colgate!
Like it’s the 50s.

Syracuse 33, Colgate 18

October 9 – Syracuse @ South Florida

With West Virginia next
Syracuse is a trap game
For the Bulls.  Upset!

Syracuse 22, USF 14

October 16 – Pitt @ Syracuse

The vaunted Cuse D
Is humbled by Dion’s game
Win streak ends sharply.

Pitt 33, Syracuse 14

October 23 – Syracuse @ West Virginia

Backyard Brawl’s other
Devine-ly handles the ‘Cuse
The long Fall goes on.

WVU 30, Syracuse 17

October 30 – Syracuse @ Cincinnati

The Big East gauntlet
Ends with ‘Cuse playing like it
Ate skyline chili.

Cincinnati 28, Syracuse 16

November 6 – Syracuse vs. Louisville

Vengeance is ours when
A home loss to Louisville
Just ain’t in the Cards.

Syracuse 20, Louisville 16

November 13 – Syracuse @ Rutgers

Vengeance is theirs when
‘Cuse gets Snookied in Jersey
Bad Situation.

Rutgers 34, Syracuse 16

November 20 – Connecticut @ Syracuse

In front of few fans,
Conf. season ends with a thud,
Bowl chances are dashed.

Connecticut 27, Syracuse 14

November 27 – Boston College @ Syracuse

‘Cuse playing for pride,
But old rival proves too much,
Where art thou, Diamond?

BC 31, Syracuse 20

Final Record: 5-7

Season summary:

‘Cuse shows signs of life,
But “O” still has far to go,
Next year we’re bowling.

    First the Democrat-theme save the dates, now your season predictions in Haiku format? This is not the Euclid 419er I remember from college.

    Looking forward to having you prove me wrong next weekend in Akron. See you in six short days.
