Syracuse escaped Saturday’s matchup against the UConn Huskies with a 27–20 overtime win, but boy oh boy was it a close one for the Orange.
Halfway through the fourth quarter, the Huskies held a 17–6 lead, and looked well in control of things. But after being kept out of the end zone all game, Syracuse finally broke through on their final two drives of regulation, punching in two touchdowns to take a 20–17 lead.
