“They didn’t handle the stage, and you don’t expect that to happen. You expect them to be able to overcome, and they'll do better next time. There's a lot of guys that were playing Clemson for the very first time. I think there’s no doubt this team is extremely young, and they’ll do better with all that stuff,” Babers said.
Syracuse held Clemson to 389 yards of total offense and 126 on the ground, much improved from their 27-21 loss a season ago. The kryptonite for “The Mob” against Clemson was inefficiency on third down and penalties. The Tigers converted six of nine opportunities in the first half, resulting in drives continuing and more points on the scoreboard. Syracuse finished with nine penalties totaling 92 yards in big spots.
Offense was hard to come by in the third quarter for both teams, but Syracuse made things interesting to open the fourth. SU turned defense into offense, following DB Jayden Bellamy’s fumble recovery forced by Myles Farmer. The Orange stormed down the field with a touchdown drive in less than two minutes capped off by LeQuint Allen catching a pass in the back corner of the end zone.
