Syracuse football: first down offense vs Boston College

Related Topics: Syracuse, Syracuse Orange

The Syracuse Orange offense was improved on Friday night, but it left too many opportunities on the table.

An anemic passing game and inability to turn great field position into points led to the 10 point outing. The overall first down numbers are inflated by two long LeQuint Allen runs. Take away the 32 and 56 yard runs, and Syracuse put up 2.5 yards on the other 18 first-down plays.
