Syracuse football beats the holy hell out of the Crusaders in Week 5

The Syracuse football squad is back over the .500 mark after beating the holy hell out of the Crusaders. Here’s how they did it.

First half

This was a game that was never going to be in question. The Orange were 38.5 point favorites in this contest and have wallopped 35 straight FCS opponents in a row.

After winning the toss, the Orange deferred and Holy Cross got the ball first. Just as was the case in every contest so far this season, the Crusaders went scoreless in the opening quarter.

The Orange put up 17 points in a variety of ways:

  • Aaron Hackett found the end zone for the fourth time this season from 14 yards out.
