Orange take on Trojans. Syracuse football players haven't set foot in the storied Coliseum since 1924. Perhaps the Orange are just waiting for an ideal opportunity to knock off a perennial college football power.

Syracuse (2-0) could land a program-defining victory Saturday night in its first visit to California since 1968 against the Trojans (2-0).

"They have a really good passing game, and they're playing extremely well," USC coach Lane Kiffin said of the Orange. "We're going to have our hands full."

Syracuse quarterback Ryan Nassib, a Malvern Prep product, "can throw the ball 60 yards downfield on the run, so we can't be complacent," USC safety T.J. McDonald said.

"Regardless of who comes into the Coliseum, we've got to protect it. We respect every team we play, even when we don't play them very often."
