With the Miami Hurricanes having already locked up half of the representation for the 2025-26 College Football Playoff National Championship as a result of their 31-27 victory over the Ole Miss Rebels in the Vrbo Fiesta Bowl, all eyes and ears focused down south here in Atlanta, Georgia, for a rematch of the Oregon Ducks and Indiana Hoosiers in the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl. The last time these two teams met, they ran balanced offenses, with Indiana passing the ball 31 times and

The Capital One Orange Bowl kicked off a trio of College Football Playoff Quarterfinal games as the eyes and ears of fans converged on Miami, Florida, at Hard Rock Stadium for the Oregon Ducks versus the Texas Tech Red Raiders. Oregon was the first to score courtesy of a 50-yard field goal off the foot of Atticus Sappington. The Red Raiders would punt the ball away in both of their first-quarter drives, and the Ducks would turn the ball over on downs in between those Red Raid

Elijah Robinson returns to the Southeastern Conference (SEC) after spending two seasons in the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) as the Defensive Coordinator of the Syracuse Orange in Fran Brown’s first two seasons with the Orange. He will now be the Co-Defensive Coordinator and Defensive Line Coach for the Texas A&M Aggies, the team he was with prior to coming to Syracuse, New York. Robinson was with the Aggies for six seasons before departing for Upstate New York. During that

After the close of the 2025 season, when Elijah Robinson’s title changed from Defensive Coordinator to Co-Defensive Coordinator, the writing was on the wall that he was being demoted from calling the defense. Following that move by Head Coach Fran Brown, he has now hired Vince Kehres to become the new Defensive Coordinator of the Syracuse Orange. Kehres heads to Central New York after serving as the Toledo Rockets (Mid-American Conference, or MAC) Defensive Coordinator for th

Taking a look back to the off-season before the 2024-25 campaign for the Syracuse Orange brings about an interesting question when it comes to the football program. Bob Chesney, the then-Head Coach of the Holy Cross Crusaders in NCAA Division I-AA (Football Championship Subdivision, or FCS), was up for the Syracuse head-coaching job. Chesney interviewed for the position, and ultimately was not chosen. But that did not take Chesney off of the NCAA Division I-A (Football Bowl S

Rivalry Week came to Central New York on a cold day in late Fall when the Boston College Eagles came from a few hours away in Massachusetts to face the Syracuse Orange for the 59th time that these two northeast institutions have met on the football field, dating back to October 18, 1924. Despite coming in with a 34-24 all-time record against the Eagles, the Orange were on the wrong side of a wo-game losing streak against their former Big East Conference and now Atlantic Coast

The Syracuse Orange had Steve Angeli as their starting quarterback for four games, where he aided the Orange to a 3-1 start to the season. With Angeli going out due to an Achilles injury, Rickie Collins, Jr., became the Syracuse starter. He had four games under center where he went 0-4. So for the ninth game of the 2025 Orange season, Head Coach Fran Brown turned elsewhere, with true freshman quarterback Joseph Filardi starting under center in this contest at home against the
