Now that’s what I’m talking about…A team that isn’t on the same tier (or three) as State and the Pack just show up and show out. Let’s hope this momentum carries over to this week’s rivalry game. Until then, let’s breakdown some numbers.
That’s the average yards per reception by the Orange. Coming into the game, we all knew to beat Syracuse, you had to make them throw. Shrader got his yards on the ground, but boy did State force the issue on throws. They applied pressure on the interior, while containing the edges. Secondary was sharp and aligned perfectly with their receiver.
