Glass-half-full stat of the week

7.75

It's pretty easy to be optimistic after last week. But here's another stat that might make you feel even better. Since 1980, SU has won its season opener 12 times. In those 12 seasons, the Orange(men) averaged 7.75 wins per year. They also averaged just 3.83 losses per season. Only once did Syracuse finish with a sub .500 season after winning the opener: in 1982 when they went 2-9. The best record: obviously, 11-0-1, in 1987.
