The Syracuse Orange lost to the Liberty Flames, 38-21 in a game that was a lot uglier than it needed to be.
Syracuse came in more injured than we’ve seen in years, with at least a dozen key contributors on the sidelines. And yet, Liberty actually gave this group a lot to work with if they could’ve found a way to take advantage. Alas... it wasn’t meant to be and a fan base that was already worked up into a lather continues to be.
Things actually started well enough for the Orange, as they were the first team on the board with a 17-yard touchdown pass from Rex Culpepper to Taj Harris mid-way through the first quarter.
