[I]As the clock was winding down in the game against North Carolina, Syracuse was facing a seven-point deficit and its third straight loss. After jumping out to a 20-7 lead on the opening drive of the second half, the Orange sputtered to just 54 total yards under quarterback Eric Dungey.[/I]

[I]With Dungey struggling, Syracuse head coach Dino Babers turned to redshirt freshman Tommy DeVito, who led the Orange to a 40-37 double-overtime win. DeVito finished 11 for 19 for 181 yards and three touchdowns.[/I]

[I]“I just felt that it might be a spark,” Babers said. “I didn’t know if he was going to do good. I didn’t know if he was going to do bad.”[/I]

[I]The energy in the Carrier Dome changed once DeVito took the field.[/I]

[I]On DeVito’s first play, he dropped a deep pass directly into receiver Jamal Custis’ hands for a 50-yard play. Though the drive eventually stalled out, SU’s offense had found its way.[/I]

[I]“I just felt this sense of momentum,” Custis said. “It just felt like we had a chance after that play.”[/I]

[I]UNC then went three and out to give Syracuse one more chance to tie the game with 2:07 left.
