Syracuse is 90-32-4 in home openers. Over the course of football history on the Hill, the Orange have had a home opener in all but two campaigns. In 1889, Syracuse did not play a home game, and in 1979, while the Dome was under construction, Syracuse's "home games" were not played in the Salt City.
