All season long we’ve been tracking the Syracuse Orange first-down offense and an area that has been a problem has suddenly become a strength as the season comes to a close. With Clayton Welch handling most of the snaps at quarterback against the Wake Forest Demon Deacons the Orange leaned on the running game in this one.
It was a solid farewell for Moe Neal as he and Jarveon Howard did most of the damage for Syracuse. As we’ve seen the last three games, the running game was a lot more successful than it had been for most of 2019.
