Syracuse football: Week 9 grades vs Notre Dame

It was bound to happen, wasn’t it?

For the first time in a while, the Syracuse Orange looked outmatched in a lot of areas of the game against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish. Notre Dame took control of the game early on and didn’t look back as the Irish cruised to a 41-24 win over the Orange. This gave Syracuse it’s second straight loss after rattling off six wins to start the season.

Here’s our grades from a shaky performance:

Quarterbacks: C-

If the pick six to start the game didn’t set off alarms, Garrett Shrader’s play through the rest of the first half certainly did.
