Led by Paul Pasqualoni in his 14th and final season as head coach, the Orange compiled an overall record of 6–6 with a mark of 4–2 in conference play, sharing the Big East title with Boston College, Pittsburgh, and West Virginia. Syracuse was invited to the Georgia Tech, where the Orange lost to Georgia Tech. The team played home games at the Carrier Dome in Syracuse, New York. This was the first season in which Syracuse used the nickname of Orange. Previously, Syracuse had respectively used "Orangemen" for men's sports, including football, and "Orangewomen" for women's sports. In 2015, Syracuse vacated the six wins from this season among others from the 2005 and 2006 seasons following an eight-year investigation, as the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) found that some players who committed academic fraud participated in the wins.Mink Nate NCAA report: Syracuse football placed on 5-year probation, self-vacates 11 wins http://www.syracuse.com/orangesports/index.ssf/2015/03/syracuse_football_penalties_ncaa_report.html Syracuse Post-Standard 7 March 2015 March 7, 2015 March 9, 2015 https://archive.today/20150309181221/http://www.syracuse.com/orangesports/index.ssf/2015/03/syracuse_football_penalties_ncaa_report.html liveO'Brien John Summary: What did Syracuse do wrong?
