Pinstripe Bowl
2012 Pinstripe Bowl
Syracuse (7-5) vs. West Virginia (7-5), Dec. 29, 3:15 p.m., Yankee Stadium
After finishing its season by winning five of its last six games, Syracuse faces longtime rival West Virginia in the Pinstripe Bowl. The Orange won the inaugural Pinstripe Bowl in 2010, defeating Kansas State, 36-34, and in its first appearance in a bowl game since that game, looks to defeat the Mountaineers for the third straight season. The game is the final game for Syracuse football as a member of the Big East.
