SYRACUSE, N.Y. – The Syracuse University football program on Wednesday announced the addition of FCS opponent Wagner to its 2022 non-conference schedule.
The Orange will host the Seahawks on Sept. 24, 2022 in what will be the third meeting between the two Empire State schools.
The addition of Wagner completes Syracuse’s 2022 non-conference schedule, which also features home games with Purdue (Sept. 17) and Notre Dame (TBD), as well as a road game against Connecticut (Sept. 10).
The Orange are 2-0 all-time against Wagner. In 2013, the Orange shut out the Seahawks 54-0. Syracuse topped Wagner 62-7 in 2018.
