Syracuse, NY \u2014 Syracuse football is 5-0 following a 59-0 victory against Wagner on Saturday night in the JMA Wireless Dome.<\/p>\n

In an exceptional agreement between both sides at halftime, the game featured 10-minute quarters in the second half with the Orange leading 49-0.<\/p>\n

The exhibition featured a career outing by running back Sean Tucker, who will have to settle for a 232-yard, three-touchdown performance on a night he was intent on breaking the school’s single-game rushing record. (He came up 20 yards shy of Joe Morris’ mark.)<\/p>\n

Quarterback Garrett Shrader set an unbreakable record by going 17-for-17 for 238 yards and three total touchdowns (two pass, one rush).<\/p>\n

He bested Don McPherson and Troy Nunes for highest completion percentage in a game with at least 10 attempts.<\/p>\n

McPherson and Nunes shared the record of 90.9% against Colgate on Oct. 24, 1987 and against Brigham Young on Sept. 30, 2000, respectively.<\/p>\n
