MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) – Whenever West Virginia looks for happy endings, it can usually count on Syracuse.
The No. 20 Mountaineers (5-1, 1-0 Big East) will be going after their ninth-straight win over the Orange (4-2, 1-1) on Saturday. All but one of them have been by double digits.
Syracuse coach Doug Marrone has made it one of his priorities to beat a ranked team and help validate his program. Heavy-favorite West Virginia could be the Orange’s only chance to do that this season.
Syracuse’s best start in 11 years was rocked by last week’s 45-14 loss to Pittsburgh at the Carrier Dome, but Marrone insists there’s plenty of time to turn things around starting this weekend in Morgantown.
