The Syracuse Orange started out very slow against the Purdue Boilermakers but they got things going in the second half. Cleaner offensive progressions and increased defensive pressure brought Syracuse back into the game. A combined 42 points scored in the fourth quarter saw the Orange barely come out alive with a 32-29 victory.

Syracuse started with the ball to begin the game, but the offense went 3-and-out as Garrett Shrader overthrew Sean Tucker on two outside throws. Purdue put together a solid opening drive that included a number of medium gains between 7-9 yards on passes against soft coverage.
