WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) — Syracuse quarterback Garrett Shrader rushed for 195 yards on 25 carries, including four touchdowns, and passed for 184 yards Saturday night to lead the Orange to a 35-20 victory over Purdue.
The Orange turned two lost fumbles by Purdue into touchdowns to take a 21-7 lead at halftime.
Purdue quarterback Hudson Card’s 5-yard touchdown run closed the deficit to 21-14 with 4:28 left in the third quarter. Syracuse (3-0) regained a 14-point cushion with Shrader’s 1-yard TD early in the fourth.
A 1-yard TD run by Purdue’s Tyrone Tracy Jr. trimmed the lead to 28-20. Ben Freehill’s PAT attempt was wide left.
Shrader’s 28-yard TD run effectively sealed it with 3:19 remaining The Boilermakers (1-2) turned the ball over on downs at the Syracuse 18 with 1:29 left.
Shrader scored touchdowns on runs of 3 and 35 yards to give the Orange a 14-0 lead in the second quarter.
The Boilermakers trimmed the deficit to 14-7 on Card’s 2-yard TD pass to Deion Burks.
A fumble by Card at the Syracuse 19 killed a Purdue drive. The Orange went 81 yards for the score, capped by LeQuint Allen’s 2-yard touchdown run with 2:34 left before halftime.

THE TAKEAWAY
Syracuse: The Orange are off to their first back-to-back 3-0 starts since 1959-60 when led by Ernie Davis. Syracuse started 6-0 last season before losing six of its last seven games.

Syracuse junior tight end Oronde Gadsden II announced Saturday he will miss the remainder of the 2023 season after suffering a Lisfranc injury, a midfoot injury, in Syracuse’s victory over Western Michigan on Sept. 9.
“With regards to my future and the possibility of declaring for the NFL Draft, I haven’t even begun to think about that, ”Gadsden said in a statement on the team’s website. “Right now, I’m only worried about helping the team in any way I can from the sidelines
