The No. 14 Syracuse Orange went into Death Valley as a two touchdown underdog to No. 5 Clemson. Both ACC squads are undefeated through the first seven weeks of the college football season, but the Tigers were expected to roll against their Atlantic Division foe.
Early on, it looked as though D.J. Uiagalelei and the Tiger offense would be too much for Syracuse’s defense, especially with injury issues for the Orange. Clemson took an early 7-0 lead, but Cuse tied things up with an emphatic drive.
