[I]Chris Elmore hesitated before planting his foot at the Wake Forest 10-yard line with his hands on his knees. With Syracuse lined up in the shotgun, Elmore stood behind Eric Dungey. When the ball was snapped, Dungey stepped to the side and tucked it into Elmore’s arms.
Elmore gained steam for five yards before reaching the line of scrimmage, where 6-foot-2, 285-pound defensive lineman Willie Yarbary tried to tackle Elmore from the side. Elmore plowed through and Yabary lay on the ground trying to grasp his foot as Elmore rumbled through a much smaller, 205-pound defensive back into the end zone for his second touchdown of the season.

“He tried his hardest,” Elmore said, laughing, of Yarbary’s attempted tackle. “That’s just them throwing me a bone. I’m blocking my ass off all the time and it’s like here you go, go work with it. I take pride in that.”

In his first two years at No. 13 Syracuse (7-2, 4-2 Atlantic Coast) Elmore has played all over the field, including halfback, fullback, wide receiver, tight end, defensive end and nose tackle. He is currently listed as a fullback/tight end as well as a backup nose tackle. But Elmore takes special pride in the fullback position, one where he uses his power to clear space for SU’s running backs and a few carries at the goal-line. It earned him the nickname “Rhino.”
