Syracuse headed on the road to Louisville after their Boston College win, seeking its 6th win to gain bowl eligibility for the first time since 2018.

The Cardinals had lost their last two games and were seeking their fifth win, and boy, did they get it.

Quarterback Malik Cunningham torched the Orange for 209 passing yards and four touchdowns, including one rushing.

The Cardinals soundly silenced Syracuse 41-3 on Lamar Jackson’s jersey retirement day in what would be Cuse’s worst defeat of the season.
