RALEIGH, N.C. — Syracuse had no choice. There was no more room to make changes and turn the season around. With three games left and two wins shy of bowl game qualification, the Orange were in a must-win scenario.
They knocked off North Carolina and then-No. 19 SMU to make their position more manageable but took another step back with an 18-13 loss to Clemson last weekend. Everything that turned the right way flared its ugly colors again.
Tripp Woody missed another field goal. Syracuse wasted six trips into Clemson territory before scoring a touchdown. Steve Angeli turned the ball over twice.
