What a relief
Rushing attack leads SU past Northeastern for 1st victory of year
By Andy McCullough
He didn't know his own stats - a new career-high - or how long it had been since he had felt this way. But Curtis Brinkley understood the feeling, the one that had eluded him and his team for so long - since last October, in fact. The feeling that used to be common for Syracuse football players, but now seems so foreign: What winning feels like.
Clayton: Offensive line no longer a weakness for SU
By John Clayton
By all accounts, Mitch Browning should have been downright cheery following Syracuse's victory over Northeastern. After all, the Orange offensive line - the perpetual mess Syracuse's first-year offensive coordinator was brought here to fix - had just played its best game in recent memory.
Deep passes tarnish SU defensive effort
By John Clayton
Greg Robinson's eyes stretched wide and his neck craned from side to side as he ranted, replaying the scene from the fourth quarter. The Syracuse head coach remembered every detail. SU linebacker Derrell Smith crashing into Northeastern quarterback Anthony Orio as he threw on 3rd-and-10.

By Edward Paik
Ange Bradley can see it, opponents trying to figure her out.

Louisville and New Hampshire jerseys were scraping orange, sticks would clash, players would fall.

They did just that. After beating the Bearcats 2-0, the Orange earned its forth shutout of the season and evened its record to 3-3-2.

By Jen McCaffrey
Each shot either barely tipped over the top of the net or was swatted away in a diving stop. After 90 minutes of regulation and two 10-minute overtime sessions, the Orange (3-3-2) tied St. John's, 0-0, Friday night at the Syracuse Soccer Stadium. The two teams matched each other possession-for-possession through regulation.
