Albany Archives - The Juice Online

Syracuse misfired on 40 shots and went scoreless for more than 13 minutes in the fourth quarter as the Orange dropped a 14-12 decision.

Flaherty played in all 47 games during his Syracuse football career and was captain of the defense as a senior in 2008.

Against UAlbany, Syracuse running back Sean Tucker ran for 5 TDs, 132 rushing yards, and 121 receiving yards.

The zone-read looks they run allow Tucker to pick his hole when it opens and he responds assertively, making a sharp cut into the open space.

Saturday afternoon, Albany did what they were paid to do: travel to Syracuse and lose a football game by a massive amount.

The Sean Tucker show with his five touchdown performance, and another strong defensive effort powered Syracuse past FCS foe Albany.

There’s already been eight games over the three weekends of the 2021 college football season in which an FCS team upset an FBS team.

Just five days removed from a humbling defeat to Notre Dame, Syracuse needed to handle the Great Danes to gain some traction.

The 13-5 domination of the No. 14 ranked Great Danes is exactly the right tonic for Syracuse.

Early on, this team looks to be formidable and a team that is worth watching going forward.
