New York -- Taj Harris knew what he did wrong, and this, as his coach alluded to after a 36-3 beatdown against Notre Dame, may help ease the pain of flopping on the national stage.
Now, to be sure, the Fighting Irish (11-0), heading west to lock up a spot in the College Football Playoff next week, were the better team from start to finish on Saturday afternoon at Yankee Stadium.
One play wasn't going to change that.
But one play did underscore the offensive mistakes that led to Syracuse football (8-3, 5-2 ACC) being kept out of the end zone for just the second time under Dino Babers.
