Syracuse football has its biggest non-conference game against northeast rival Rutgers this Saturday afternoon.
Syracuse football cruised by Ohio 29-9 in the 2021 season opener. Next up for the Orange is Rutgers, a recruiting rival and the premiere non-conference opponent for SU this season.
Sean Tucker and Duce Chestnut were the Co-MVPs against the Bobcats. Tucker, the Orange’s starting running back, rushed for 181 yards and one touchdown on 25 carries.
Chestnut, Syracuse’s top freshman, delivered one of the best performances of any true freshman in the country.
