Amari Odom - Not playing versus North Carolina Odom (shoulder) won't be available for Saturday's game versus North Carolina, per the ACC availability report.

Impact Odom will not be an option under center for Syracuse as he deals with a shoulder injury that will prevent him from suiting up in his third consecutive game. Syracuse's quarterback room is banged up, with Steve Angeli (undisclosed) questionable and Malachi Nelson (leg) ruled out.

Malachi Nelson - Not playing versus North Carolina Nelson (leg) will miss Saturday's contest versus North Carolina, per the ACC availability report.

Impact The QB situation at Syracuse couldn't be any worse, as both Nelson and Amari Odom (shoulder) are out, while Steve Angeli (undisclosed) is questionable. As things stand now, it wouldn't be surprising if fourth-string quarterback Danny Lauter ends up starting Saturday.

Steve Angeli - Deemed questionable versus North Carolina Angeli (undisclosed) has been deemed questionable for Saturday's matchup versus North Carolina, per the ACC availability report.

Impact Angeli has missed Syracuse's last three games while dealing with an undisclosed injury, and it remains to be seen whether the signal-caller will be back in the mix for this weekend. Malachi Nelson has been starting in Angeli's place and should continue to do so until Angeli is cleared to return.

Daunte Bacheyie - Secures five receptions Bacheyie reeled in 5 of 6 targets for 29 yards during Saturday's 34-26 defeat to Louisville.

Impact Bacheyie's five receptions marked a new season high, but he also saw his four-game touchdown streak halted. He'll look to start a new touchdown-scoring streak on Saturday at North Carolina.

Calvin Russell III - Finds end zone against Louisville Russell totaled six receptions (on nine targets) for 53 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 34-26 defeat to Louisville.

Impact The freshman from Opa Locka, Fla. saw his first meaningful action at UConn on Oct. 13, but he saw a total of seven touches in this one. Russell has tremendous upside, and he might carve out a nice role for himself in the offense if he can continue to take advantage of opportunities when they present themselves.

Umari Hatcher - Goes off against Louisville Hatcher hauled in 13 of 15 targets for 224 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 34-26 defeat to Louisville.

Impact Hatcher might be one of the most unheralded players in America. He has eight or more receptions in four of six games, and he has rolled up at least 126 receiving yards in three in a row, while scoring at least one touchdown (five total) in the past three outings, too. He'll look to keep up the good work at NC State on Saturday night.

Tylik Hill - Bottled up against Louisville Hill tallied 11 rushes for 26 yards and caught 0 of 1 targets for zero yards during Saturday's 34-26 loss to Louisville.

Impact Hill averaged just 2.4 yards per carry, as he was outshined badly by Ahmad Miller with 18 carries for 123 yards and a TD, averaging 6.8 yards per carry. As such, Hill might have to take a backseat to Miller if he gets on another heater Saturday at NC State.

Ahmad Miller - Hits triple digits in home loss Miller posted 18 carries for 123 yards and one touchdown and hauled in their only target for seven yards during Saturday's 34-26 defeat to Louisville.

Impact Miller has scored rushing touchdowns in back-to-back games, and three of the past four outings. The big performance was a bit unexpected, as he had 30 carries for just 114 yards in his first four outings. He'll try to keep up the momentum at Nort Carolina on Saturday.

Impact Syracuse have been dealing with lots of injuries at the quarterback position, and it wouldn't be surprising if Nelson misses time, although further tests will be needed to determine that. Steve Angeli (undisclosed) and Amari Odom (shoulder) are also injured, so if Nelson has to miss times, Danny Lauter would be the next in line to start under center.

Malachi Nelson - Good to go vs. Louisville Nelson (collarbone) is not listed on the injury report for Saturday's game versus Louisville, per the ACC availability report.

Impact Nelson's collarbone appears to not be an issue for the quarterback as he has cleared Syracuse's injury report. He is slated to start under center, as Steve Angeli (undisclosed) and Amari Odom (shoulder) have both been ruled out for Saturday. The quarterback started Week 6 against Virginia, completing 16 of 29 passes for 217 yards and one touchdown before exiting.

Steve Angeli - Doubtful to play in Week 7 Angeli (undisclosed) is doubtful to play Saturday against Louisville, according to Pete Thamel of ESPN.com.

Impact Angeli is trending in the wrong direction, and at this stage, it'd be shocking if he ends up playing this weekend. Malachi Nelson (collarbone) was downgraded from probable to questionable in Friday's injury report, but he's still expected to get the nod under center. Angeli has a 4:5 TD:INT while completing just 54.8 percent of his passes in three games this season.

Malachi Nelson - Listed as questionable for Saturday Nelson (collarbone) is now questionable for Saturday's game versus Louisville, per the ACC availability report.

Impact Nelson was probable to feature Saturday, and while the downgrade in status is concerning, he's still expected to get the start under center if he's healthy enough to play. Steve Angeli (undisclosed) is doubtful, paving the way for Nelson to get the nod under center despite the recent downgrade.

Steve Angeli - Not expected to start in Week 7 Angeli (undisclosed) is not expected to start in Saturday's game against Louisville, Pete Thamel of ESPN reports.

Impact Angeli's injury status could clear up just before the Syracuse-Louisville game, but with the Orange expected to start Malachi Nelson (collarbone) in spite of his own injury, it looks like they will hold the former back another week. Angeli would be chomping at the bit to return, especially after his unimpressive pre-injury performances and Nelson's recent excellence at Virginia in Week 6.

Malachi Nelson - Expected to start Week 7 Nelson (collarbone) is expected to start in Saturday's game against Louisville, Pete Thamel of ESPN reports.

Impact Although the ACC availability report recently included a questionable Nelson, Thamel's update indicates the quarterback will have recovered from his collarbone injury and be able to play in the Syracuse-Louisville game. It has been built up as a difficult endeavor for the Orange, with their top-two QBs Steve Angeli (undisclosed) and Amari Odom (foot) also dealing with injuries. Nelson played in their Week 6 absence and blossomed, completing 16 passes for 217 yards and a touchdown without any turnovers at Virginia.

Amari Odom - Out vs. Louisville Odom (shoulder) will not suit up for Saturday's game against the Cardinals.

OCTOBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Malachi Nelson - Officially questionable Nelson (collarbone) is questionable for Saturday's game against Louisville.

Impact Nelson is officially being ruled as questionable after X-rays were negative following his injury. Nelson could end up returning to a backup role if Steve Angeli (undisclosed) is able to suit up. The team will already be down Amari Odom (shoulder) for Saturday's contest.

OCTOBER 14 • ROTOWIRE

Steve Angeli - Officially questionable Angeli (undisclosed) is questionable Saturday's game versus Louisville.

Impact Coach Fran Brown did make some optimistic comments earlier in the week that he's hopeful for Angeli to play. The senior quarterback's participation in practice over the next few days will be a major indication of whether he'll be ready to return.
