Tucker’s 38-yard run set up Shrader’s 12-yard touchdown pass to Gadsden, his fourth scoring catch of the season. Syracuse (6-0, 3-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) started a season with six wins for just the third time since 1935, taking advantage of the absence of the Wolfpack’s injured star quarterback, Devin Leary. — Garrett Shrader hit Oronde Gadsden II with a pair of touchdown passes, Sean Tucker scored on a 25-yard run late and No.

NC State’s offense sputtered to 87 total yards of offense in the first half and a 1-of-7 3rd down conversion rate. As expected, the injury to Devin Leary, who was announced about an hour before kickoff as being out for the rest of the season with a torn pectoral muscle, was a huge hit on the NC State offense which totaled just five completions for 31 yards in the first half. While Sean Tucker was able to start the game with a 38-yard run and pass Floyd Little for 6th all-time on the SU rushing leaderboard, Garrett Shrader looked a lot like the guy we were afraid to see in the first 30 minutes throwing two bad interceptions.

Gadsden is the clear top target for Syracuse's passing attack. Opposing teams know this and game plan to stop it, yet still cannot figure out a way to do so. NC ...

This will be the first time a 6-0 Syracuse team faced another team 6-0 or better since 1959 when the Orange faced 7-0 Penn State. That 6-0 start, including 3-0 in conference play, sets up a showdown in the ACC Atlantic that may very well determine who goes to Charlotte for the ACC Championship game. Syracuse may jump into the top 15 this week and is one of only nine unbeaten teams in the country. Syracuse won the national championship that year. Syracuse was already down several starts before this game and needs to remain healthy to continue to pile up wins. He now has 31 catches for 507 yards and five touchdowns on the season, on pace for 62 catches for 1,014 yards and 10 scores. The Orange needs Tucker to be that version of himself as the schedule continues to get more difficult. Williams and Duce Chestnut are perhaps the best cornerback duo in the ACC. He went off the field in the first quarter after making a tackle and was in the medical tent for quite some time. Syracuse lost Garrett Williams in this game to injury. He led the team with 1.5 sacks on the afternoon. The Syracuse defense was fantastic on Saturday.
