Syracuse (3-6, 1-4 Atlantic Coast) will host No. 3 Clemson (9-0, 6-0) on Saturday at 1 p.m., SU announced in a tweet early Sunday morning. The game will be televised on ABC and played in the Carrier Dome.
The Orange is coming off a 41-17 loss at Louisville and has lost six consecutive games. The Tigers beat Florida State one week after the Seminoles took down Syracuse.
SU is 1-2 all-time against Clemson including a 41-0 Gator Bowl victory in 1996. But Syracuse has lost to the Tigers in each of the past two seasons by a combined score of 65-20.
