Despite the loss of Chandler Jones, the defensive end corps continues to make big plays. Now, as Jones returns to the practice field, the unit looks to become the strength of the Syracuse defense.

Syracuse prepares for its rare trip to the west coast to play USC in what will be a homecoming of sorts for some California-bred players.

Defensive lineman Mikhail Marinovich at SU's media day. It’s been 44 years since the Syracuse University football team last visited the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Forty four years ago, in 1967, the Orange capped off an 8-2 season with a win against UCLA, who still played its home games at the Coliseum.
