Syracuse vs. Clemson single-game football tickets sell out

If you were holding out on buying tickets for this fall’s Syracuse Orange vs. Clemson Tigers game — a contest that is already homecoming and may wind up hosting College Gameday as well — you’re potentially out of luck. At least in terms of single-game tickets.

Orange AD John Wildhack announced today that there are no more single-game tickets available, but a limited number out there through season tickets and three-game packages. As covered many times before, SU’s season tickets are pretty much the cheapest in the Power Five. So... not a bad deal, even if you only end up at the Clemson game (and then sell the rest, potentially).

At the brief Monday press event, Wildhack also addressed last week’s Dino Babers recalled extension graphic by saying the length (through 2024) was inaccurate — but that Dino would be around for a long time. Whether the extension is through 2024 or not, I think it’s worth just saying the year/length at this point. From the standpoint of potential recruits and boosters, it’s an easy win to push that, the Camping World Bowl rings and the sellout news together as football momentum/commitment. If you want long-term stability to be the message (and they do), just seems like a very short statement of “yeah, he’s here through at least 2024” accomplishes that without giving away much else. Alas...

The Syracuse senior’s approach has drawn criticism but she’s found that staying true to herself has led to her success. “Everything hit there,” Levy said. “I’m thinking ‘Yeah, I’m an outside shooter. I can play like a guy.’ I can bring this aspect of men’s lacrosse into the women’s game and kind of change the game a little bit.”

Knutson was becoming the face of Syracuse’s tennis program, and Ilona couldn’t be there to see it.

Former Syracuse quarterback Eric Dungey might be a player to watch. The 6-foot-3, 220-pound Dungey is listed as a quarterback/tight end on the mini-camp roster, and could eventually be in line for a look in a Taysom Hill type role. Shurmur said Dungey is “one of those guys we sort of had our eye on throughout the draft.” The coach added that Dungey is “a good football player” and “usually there’s a place on the field for guys that are good football players.
