Without starting quarterback Eric Dungey, the Syracuse offense had trouble moving the ball consistently, leading to the Orange eventually falling to North Carolina State at home, 35-20.

Syracuse and N.C. State met in the Carrier Dome Saturday afternoon with the Wolfpack pulling away for a 35-20 win. The loss for Syracuse dropped its record to 4-6, and the Orange are not likely to receive a bowl invitation unless they sweep the two games left to play at home against Florida State, and at Pittsburgh.
