PRE-GAME
There’s nothing like ACC football on a Friday night under the dome between Syracuse and Louisville.

Twenty minutes until kickoff at #Syracuse. Critical game against Louisville coming up. pic.twitter.com/zpTsqnGRZa

Darius Kelly (@D_kellyCuse) fulfills pre-game ritual by high-fiving kids in the corner of Carrier Dome. My favorite part of the game.
— chris carlson (@ccarlsononSU) October 3, 2014
Scouts from the Falcons, Cardinals, Bills, Packers, Vikings, Saints, Buccaneers & Titans in attendance for Louisville-Syracuse.

FIRST QUARTER
stop dry-humping the red zone.
— Hoya Suxa (@HoyaSuxa) October 3, 2014
Watching the same game? RT @SU_MarchingBand Game's going great so far, and we're excited to perform Bohemian Rhapsody one last time!
— Brian Harrison (@BH_Orange44) October 3, 2014
Why makes things easy in the red zone? Where's the fun in that?
— NunesMagician.com (@NunesMagician) October 3, 2014
George McDonald, everyone!
— John Cassillo (@JohnCassillo) October 3, 2014
@29atrain this is a joke !
— Jerome Smith (@Rom34Smith) October 3, 2014
Wait...you can score touchdowns from inside the five???
— NunesMagician.com (@NunesMagician) October 3, 2014
The silver lining of that Louisville TD drive: John Raymon made his 1st appearance of the season on the PAT. Welcome back!
— Syracuse Football (@CuseFootball) October 3, 2014
SECOND QUARTER
Syracuse football is a Goo Goo Dolls song.
— Hoya Suxa (@HoyaSuxa) October 3, 2014
Somewhere, Pete Gillen is envious of Syracuse's pioneering timeout strategy of using one before a quarter even begins.
— Patrick Stevens (@D1scourse) October 3, 2014
Here we go: A 97-yard drive that results in Syracuse punting from the Louisville 1 yard line.
— Hoya Suxa (@HoyaSuxa) October 3, 2014
You know what would have been a better play call? Anything.
— NunesMagician.com (@NunesMagician) October 3, 2014
I take it back. Let's talk about uniforms.
— Chris McManus (@CuseChris) October 3, 2014
Strong evidence tonight that George DeLeone's playbook is still lying around.
— Anish Shroff (@AnishESPN) October 4, 2014
Louisville and Syracuse 37 plays 175 yards. Resembles many high school games. Go cards.
— TomahawkNation.com (@TomahawkNation) October 3, 2014
you can’t spell syracuse-louisville without you secular isis and i think they mean it
— martin rickman (@martinrickman) October 4, 2014
That handoff call on 3rd-and-10 draws some heavy boos from the Carrier Dome crowd.
— Stephen Bailey (@Stephen_Bailey1) October 4, 2014
It's a little funny/curious to think how many more people will be in the Carrier Dome when #Louisville returns February 18
— ACC Sports (@ACCSports) October 4, 2014
We’re a trainwreck, but we’re a FUN trainwreck
— Dan Lyons (@Dan_Lyons76) October 4, 2014
Here's a fun NCAA rule FYI: You can fake spike the ball but you can't fake kneel. Any kneeling motion, touching the ground or not, is dead.
— Brian Harrison (@BH_Orange44) October 4, 2014
Thing is, Hunt made a pretty decent throw before that to get Syracuse where they needed to be. And no one will remember it now.
— Brent Axe (@BrentAxeMedia) October 4, 2014
That’s on everyone. Hunt not being aware of TO situation is inexcusable, as is team not having a play ready for last snap. My brain hurts.
— Dan Lyons (@Dan_Lyons76) October 4, 2014
Incredible how many Cuse players had no idea their team was out of timeouts.
— Anish Shroff (@AnishESPN) October 4, 2014
i think that football teams should have as many timeouts as they need as long as they believe it in their heart
— Jon Bois (@jon_bois) October 4, 2014
If that doesn't sum up this season so far, I don't know what does.
— NunesMagician.com (@NunesMagician) October 4, 2014
HALFTIME
Ideas for second half: Know the rules of the game. Don''t waste timeouts. Don't take snaps from shotgun in the end zone...
— John Cassillo (@JohnCassillo) October 4, 2014
if this syracuse-louisville game were happening 5 years ago, they'd use it as an excuse to take the big east's bcs bid away
— We take the stairs (@NoEscalators) October 4, 2014
Syracuse's offense is such steaming garbage.
— Spencer Hall (@edsbs) October 4, 2014
At what point does SU just put Riley Dixon in at QB? He's obv the only weapon Cuse has.
— CNY Media Critic (@CNYmediaCritic) October 4, 2014
Wonder if Rally Dog is in the Dome tonight? pic.twitter.com/ywEAgXjcWw

Pray harder, my Jewish friends.
— Hoya Suxa (@HoyaSuxa) October 4, 2014
THIRD QUARTER
If today’s highlights arent set to Tears of a Clown, the Internet has failed
— Dan Lyons (@Dan_Lyons76) October 4, 2014
Syracuse offense is the most tragic comedy. Just innovative, awful performance art.
— John Cassillo (@JohnCassillo) October 4, 2014
Syracuse drops TD. Stadium plays TD CELEBRATION HORN anyway. Watch: http://t.co/vQh9IT0WpH #GOACC pic.twitter.com/C0z0NaDJ9m
— SB✯Nation CFB (@SBNationCFB) October 4, 2014
Thanks, Lewis. I just swore in front of my two-year-old. Loudly.
— Jeremy Ryan (@JeremyRyan44) October 4, 2014
Louisville absolutely Syracuse-esque with penalties tonight.
— NunesMagician.com (@NunesMagician) October 4, 2014
I hope this game ends 12-9.
— Brian Harrison (@BH_Orange44) October 4, 2014
"Is that the end zone? Quick someone commit a penalty!" -This game @DOsports
— Jacob Klinger (@Jacob_Klinger_) October 4, 2014
Tackling? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
— John Cassillo (@JohnCassillo) October 4, 2014
If this were flag football, we'd be killing Louisville right now.
— NunesMagician.com (@NunesMagician) October 4, 2014
Was shocked the horn didn't sound when the punt went into the endzone
— James (@theNYsportsguy) October 4, 2014
The best part about a Syracuse football disaster is how it gets us all drunker together.
— DCF (@DrunkCuseFan) October 4, 2014
Hey SU offense, prove this snarky tweet wrong: "Oh good, another turnover the offense won't get to cash in."
— Brent Axe (@BrentAxeMedia) October 4, 2014
Are you shocked by that? No? OK, good. We're all on the same page here.
— Brent Axe (@BrentAxeMedia) October 4, 2014
I'm pretty sure @JohnCassillo should be getting paid for those film review posts. Watching this once is hard enough.
— Sean Farrell (@seanfarrell92) October 4, 2014
Sideline audio of the Syracuse Defense to the Syracuse Offense. http://t.co/KnIJMQPbMs
— Brent Axe (@BrentAxeMedia) October 4, 2014
@NunesMagician I really think Herrel Tunt is wearing Terrel Hunts uniform
— -J- (O's/Cuse/Colts) (@JasonSpears_301) October 4, 2014
No, it's not Austin Wilson time. Come on, guys. But Riley Dixon time ...well, that's a conversation we can have.
— Brent Axe (@BrentAxeMedia) October 4, 2014
FOURTH QUARTER
"Slips a tackle." Oh I think the tackle slipped him.
— NunesMagician.com (@NunesMagician) October 4, 2014
Big touchdown for #Louisville and that may be it for Syracuse. Bonnafon to Christian 26-6 is the count 7:45 to go in the Carrier Dome
— ACC Sports (@ACCSports) October 4, 2014
Challenge yourselves, Louisville. Try to top Syracuse's six points with nothing but safeties.
— Jason Kirk (@JasonKirkSBN) October 4, 2014
WE COULD HAVE USED HIM. @KatieKrames So @mookie21jones was at the game.
— NunesMagician.com (@NunesMagician) October 4, 2014
Don't know why the replay refs would voluntarily watch more of this Syracuse-Louisville game.
— Jeff (@saintwarrick) October 4, 2014
This is that part of the show where the music slows and you know someone is about to die.
— Brent Axe (@BrentAxeMedia) October 4, 2014
Atlanta’s snow plows would like a word with Scott Shafer’s offense.
— Ben Swain (@TheBenSwain) October 4, 2014
New @NunesMagician feature: John drinks for two MORE hours after the game and THEN writes a recap in that mindset.
— John Cassillo (@JohnCassillo) October 4, 2014
Don't worry, guys. We've got FSU next week!
— Daniel Muster (@dnmuster) October 4, 2014
POST-GAME
Seems the highlight of the night for Bobby Petrino was meeting Floyd Little, as would be the case for anyone who just watched that game.
— Patrick Stevens (@D1scourse) October 4, 2014
Can be considered a poor choice of wording to some "@ESPNCFB: Louisville (5-1) rides its D to a 28-6 win at Syracuse (2-3)."
— Zach (@FSU_Zach) October 4, 2014
I feel good about my "eat a roll of quarters if Syracuse goes 9-3" bet.
— Mark Ennis (@MarkEnnis) October 4, 2014
MCDONALD DEFENDERS, WHERE ARE YOU NOW?!
— John Cassillo (@JohnCassillo) October 4, 2014
sorry had to #OrangeEagle "Syracuse Football 2014: Why The Orange Will Finish 9-3" http://t.co/jacwH8hPmE @NunesMagician
— BC Interruption (@bcinterruption) October 4, 2014
@BH_Orange44 thanks, man. Good luck against /checks schedule Wake Forest in a couple weeks
— Scott King (@cardscott5) October 4, 2014
I lived the entire Greg Robinson Era and this...this is the first time I'm reminded of how that used to feel.
— NunesMagician.com (@NunesMagician) October 4, 2014
Shafer actually mentioned ISIS in his postgame presser?!?! No Scott, no.
— T.J. Basalla (@tjbasalla) October 4, 2014
first off so this ended up being a thing RT @martinrickman: can’t spell syracuse-louisville w/out you secular isis & i think they mean it
— martin rickman (@martinrickman) October 4, 2014
Shafer is basically telling fans that there are more important things in life than football. True, but condescending nonetheless.
— NunesSwordsman (@NunesSwordsman) October 4, 2014
You can't bombard us with how important it is to invest ourselves in you and then scold us for being disappointed when you lose.
— NunesMagician.com (@NunesMagician) October 4, 2014
The only way tonight gets any worse is if someone asks Jim Boeheim is he's gonna retire. Don't even think about it, @GreggDoyelCBS.
