East-West Shrine Game Filling Up On Orange

You were already locked in to watching the East-West Shrine Game when Delone Carter announced he'd be playing in it. At least now, even when Delone's not on the field, they'll probably be another Syracuse player around to keep your interest up. Doug Hogue and Ryan Bartholomew will be there as well to show off their wares.

Syracuse linebacker Doug Hogue (Yonkers, N.Y.) and center Ryan Bartholomew (Mitchelville, Md.) earned invitations to represent Syracuse in 86th annual East-West Shrine Game® on January 22, 2011, at the Florida Citrus Bowl in Orlando, Florida (4:00 p.m. EST, NFL Network).

The game will have now featured 71 Orange since its inception, including Ernie Davis, John Mackey, Art Monk, Don McPherson, Marvin Harrison and some guy named Doug Marrone.

And of course, the comments are officially a free-for-all for anyone who wants to photoshop a fez onto Doug Hogue's head. You've been waiting all year...
