The difficulty in life is the choice
Determining the editorial voice of this site can be surprisingly demanding. On the one hand, there is our stated mission, that being to promote the success (and subsequent failure) of Major Applewhite. On the other hand, we share a broader mission to advance the greater good.
Occasionally, these priorities conflict.
On Saturday, Syracuse (1-7, 0-5 Big East) takes on the South Florida Bulls (4-3, 2-1 Big East) at home. With the Orange's final two opponents being Notre Dame and Louisville, many view this week's game as the last chance for Robinson & Co to win a second game and avoid the always painful 10-loss season. We hope they lose.
Shocked? Don't be... we bear Major no animus. South Florida, however, has the opportunity to go to a BCS bowl if they win the remainder of their games and nothing would be (i) worse for the Big East, (ii) worse for the SEC and (iii) correspondingly, better for the rest of us, than if that were to occur.
Prediction: USF 31 SU 13
