ESPN RECAP

Syracuse scores game-winning touchdown with 17 seconds to go to defeat No. 19 SMU 30-27

SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- , Steve Angeli hit little-used tight end Noah Meyers on a 2-yard scoring strike with 17 seconds to go and Syracuse defeated No. 19 SMU 30-27 Saturday. The Orange (4-4, 2-4 ACC) got the ball on their own 32-yard line with 3:36 remaining while trailing 27-23. Angeli led Syracuse on an 11-play drive capped by Meyers’ second career touchdown for the Orange. Meyers, a transfer from Western Kentucky, had six receptions for 73 yards entering the game. “It’s absolutely awesome,” Angeli said of the winning drive. “We talked about it before the game. Let’s have our receivers go out there and make touchdown blocks. Have our tight ends also go out there and dominate. I think that’s what those guys did.” Angeli said the winning march didn't come as a surprise. “It’s all about preparation throughout the week.
