North Carolina State

Welcome to the post season, Syracuse football. The Orange clinched a bowl bid beating N. C. State 51-41 in a happy Carrier Dome Saturday evening.

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.
