2009 Syracuse Football Preview:
Head Coach: Doug Marrone
Syracuse will be looking to rebuild in 2009 under new Head Coach Doug Marrone. Marrone is a Cuse alum who was hired to take over the Orange program and restore it to a power in Big East football. Marrone will start his overhaul of Syracuse on the offensive side, where he has the most experience. If he and his Orange play up to their potential then 2009 could be a solid year in Syracuse.

Syracuse's football program first began competing in 1889. The program's early history was very successful but would slump in the 1930's and '40s. Syracuse won a national championship in 1959 with Ernie Davis, the first African-American Heisman Winner. The '60s saw the running of Floyd Little and Larry Csonka. Art Monk and Joe Morris starred at Syracuse in the 1980's. The Orange's best success came under the coaching of Dick MacPherson and his successor Paul Pasqualoni. They would lead the team to 4 conference titles and 11 bowl game appearances. Some of the great players they coached include Donovan McNabb, Marvin Harrison, and Qadry Ismail.
The Syracuse Orange play their home games at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse, New York. The stadium holds 50,000 spectators and is the largest domed stadium on a college campus.
