No matter which college team you root for, no one should deny the benefits to all of New York football when Syracuse University is playing well. 31 New Yorkers are currently on NFL rosters in 2022. Former pro football stars like Ron Jaworski, Boomer Esiason and even fan favorite Rob Gronkowski are all from the Empire State. Top names and the big teams always draw fans attention. That's why it's awesome when the Orange are playing well because upstate New York draws the attention of all of college football.

After months of negotiations, Syracuse University's Carrier Dome officially has a new name. It's the end of an era for this legendary Upstate NY sports venue.

A major Upstate NY sports venue had a "lifetime contract" for its name, but now, is in the process of changing names for the first time. What's in a (new) name?

The Carrier Dome is a legendary sports venue in Upstate New York, and fans will soon be introduced to a new "state-of-the-art" experience when attending Syracuse games.

For the second time in the last six years, rumors are circulating that Syracuse men's basketball coach Jim Boeheim will be retiring soon. Here's what we know so far.

The new coach of the Broncos may have plenty of orange in his closet. As reported on Thursday by ESPN, Denver is working to finalize a deal to hire Green Bay Packers offensive coordinator Nathaniel Hackett as their new head coach. The Broncos have had five consecutive losing seasons. The last three had been orchestrated under former head coach Vic Fangio, who was fired in early January. Now Denver is hoping that the former Syracuse assistant coach can help bring that franchise back to the Super Bowl.

Jim Boeheim and his Syracuse Orange have struggled out of the gate this year. Losses to Colgate, VCU and Georgetown certainly have not been highlights on their road to a 5-5 record to start the season. A legitimate COVID outbreak has forced the program to be put 'on pause' since December 11th. With their 2nd game of ACC schedule just ahead, the Orange were in danger of possibly forfeiting conference games. Syracuse defeated Florida State 63-60 in Tallahassee on December 4th in there only ACC match-up so far.

Joseph: On behalf of my 76 year old father Harry, aka Papa Codes, I personally wanted thank you for choosing Syracuse University as the place you'll  play college basketball. Pops in 76 years old today, but you'd think he was a kid the way he glowingly discussed the future of Syracuse hoops now that you committed to his beloved Orange...

The Albany Devils might be playing their last games at the Times Union Center, but it was announced on ESPN Radio 104.5 The Team earlier this week that a few new sports teams will be calling Albany their home. Capital Region sports fans have been lucky to witness some awesome sports moments at the TU Center that were big stories here locally and nationally...

Can you hear that noise? It always makes its way around New York State this time of the year.
