SYRACUSE, N.Y. — The Syracuse Orange football team (2-2) looks for a second straight win when it hosts the Holy Cross Crusaders (1-2) from the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) level on Saturday afternoon.
The game kicks off at 12:03 p.m. at the Dome in Syracuse and will be shown on the ACC Network. Wes Durham, Roddy Jones, and Eric Wood will be the announcing crew. Currently, the ACC Network is available to subscribers of DirecTV, Dish, Hulu, PlayStation Vue, Sling, Spectrum’s Select TV package, Verizon Fios, and YouTube TV.
Syracuse, led by quarterback Tommy DeVito, comes into the game off a 52-33 home win over Western Michigan a week ago. That snapped a two-game losing streak in which the Orange were trounced by Clemson and Maryland.
