Brent Axe and Emily Leiker recap Syracuse football's thrilling 44-41 win over UNLV in Las Vegas live from Allegiant Stadium.

It was a game where Syracuse needed a little bit everything, including some Las Vegas luck, to take down UNLV for the jackpot. Brent and Emily recap an epic night including LeQuint Allen's stalwart performance through injury on the way to four touchdowns, including the winning score in overtime where he just refused to go down.

The win over the Rebels also featured a massive comeback performance from Oronde Gadsden, who went from one catch for four yards against Holy Cross to a career-high 10 catches for 142 yards against UNLV.

Syracuse quarterback Kyle McCord threw 63 passes (40-of-63) for his fifth straight 300-yard game (355 yards), overcoming a fourth-quarter interception to lead Syracuse down the field to tie the game, send it into overtime and eventually snag the win.

It was an epic game and an epic time for Syracuse fans in Las Vegas, who now have the memory of a lifetime.
