Syracuse redshirt junior WR Trishton Jackson brought in 10 passes for 111 yards and a touchdown in Saturday’s 39-30 win over Wake Forest.
If only Jackson had earned the same yardage and touchdown total on one more reception to round out the perfect score line. Alas, perfect box score or not, Jackson came through when Syracuse needed him most, showing out in a game in which the Orange had to play their backup QB. Jackson, a lean 6-foot-1, 183-pounds, nearly had a second touchdown on the day with a diving effort, but was ruled out of bounds just before making the scoring leap. Jackson finishes the year with over 1,000 yards and 11 touchdowns.
