The Orange didn’t turn the ball over a single time while Louisville committed two turnovers. Syracuse is 3-0 on the season when they don’t commit a turnover.
The Orange moved one step closer to a bowl game with an upset of No. 9 Louisville on Saturday afternoon. Here are the video highlights brought to you by SNY.
No. 12 finished the game 15-23 for 246 yards—a stellar 16 yards per catch—with three touchdowns, including one to ersatz tailback Lewellyn Coker to cap the Orange scoring barrage.
Syracuse upset No. 9, and previously undefeated, Louisville on Saturday afternoon at the Carrier Dome. The Orange offense totaled more than 500 yards in the win.
In college sports, a school has one of two options—you can be basketball school, or you can be a football school. And if your school is lucky, you can pull off the double threat. Syracuse is not one of them.
From a purely rational standpoint, one that takes into account a cost-benefit analysis of the return on one’s emotional, physical, and financial investment in a sports team, you’d have to be completely irrational to be a die-hard fan.
The up-and-down 2012 season for Syracuse continued its course as they snapped a modest two-game win streak with a sloppy performance on Saturday afternoon that netted a 35-24 loss at Cincinnati.
In my opinion, that loss cost the Orange a bowl appearance. No way they’re beating undefeated Louisville at home, and I don’t see them winning at Missouri.
