Syracuse won by a final score 36–34. With 1:13 left in the game, Kansas State's Adrian Hilburn scored a 30-yard touchdown to pull KSU within two points of a tie. Following the score, Hilburn made a military hand salute toward the crowd and was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct. Because of the 15-yard penalty, Kansas State had to attempt a two-point conversion from the 17-yard line. The conversion failed, accounting for the margin in the final score. The call was considered highly controversial, and according to ESPN determined the outcome of the game.https://www.espn.com/new-york/ncf/news/story?id=5972281 ESPN Adrian Hilburn 'devastated' by call January 1, 2013 December 31, 2010 Kieran Darcy Due to the impact from this call, the NCAA chose in the next year's rule changes to not penalize celebrating in general but to penalize only taunting.http://lubbockonline.com/interact/blog-post/david-just/2011-07-25/kansas-state-salute-penalty-prompts-rule-change#.UOOo2XfNmSo Kansas State salute penalty prompts rule change David Just January 1, 2013 July 11, 2011 Lubbock Avalanche-Journal The call was called "one of the most infamous plays of the college football season in 2010" and was given the name "The Bronx Salute."
