SYRACUSE, N.Y. -- After several tough losses, including an overtime heartbreaker against No. 3 Clemson, North Carolina State is now poised to go to a bowl.All they need is one more win.Matt Dayes ran for 108 yards and three touchdowns, and the NC State defense held Syracuse to 218 yards in a 35-20 victory on Saturday.The resiliency of our football team, losing four of our five games by a possession, theyve been able to stick together. Im really proud of them today, Wolfpack coach Dave Doeren said. This gets that carrot in front of their nose for the bowl opportunity. You want to feel the pleasure of your work and you cant do that by almost winning. This gives them the satisfaction of the grind and they needed that today.I feel very confident about our bowl chances, added defensive end Bradley Chubb. We have two opportunities and need just one more win.Ryan Finley was 20-of-29 for 340 yards and one touchdown for the Wolfpack (5-5, 2-4 ACC). Kelvin Harmon had 101 yards receiving and one touchdown and BraLon Cherry had seven receptions. Dayes scored on runs of 7, 20, and 13 yards.The Wolfpack defense held the Orange, 113th nationally in rushing, to just 28 yards on the ground and 190 yards passing.Syracuse (4-6, 2-4) played without sophomore quarterback Eric Dungey, who was hit in the head/shoulder area during the first quarter of a 54-0 loss to No. 3 Clemson last weekend. Dungey, third in the ACC and 16th nationally in passing yards, was replaced by junior Zack Mahoney. Dungey practiced during the week but was not cleared by the teams medical staff.Obviously, we were at a disadvantage without Eric Dungey being able to participate, said Syracuse coach Dino Babers. Before the Clemson game, I think he was ranked in the top 10 quarterbacks in the country. Obviously, we missed him a great deal out there. There wouldve been a lot of things that we couldve taken advantage of.The Orange was also without starting wide receiver Steven Ismael who dressed but not play. Ishmael has 41 receptions this season.Mahoney, a walk-on who was awarded a scholarship before the 2016 season, led the Orange to a touchdown on their first drive. He was 5-of-6 passing, including a 12-yard completion to Erv Philips on fourth down. But the Orange offense bogged down the rest of the half, managing just a 48-yard field goal by Cole Murphy.Mahoney finished 13-of-24 for 190 yards, a touchdown and interception. Amba Etta-Tawo caught three passes for 84 yards and one touchdown.THE TAKEAWAY:NC State: The Wolfpack can qualify for a bowl game by winning one of their remaining games against Miami or No. 15 North Carolina.Syracuse: With the status of Eric Dungey uncertain, the Orange will have a tough time getting to six wins with games against Florida State and at Pitt.UP NEXT:NC State: The Wolfpack returns home for a contest against Miami on Saturday.Syracuse: The Orange has its work cut out for it with a matchup against the No. 19 Florida State on Saturday.

Do either of these great plays have what it takes to be this years POY Champion? Henrik Sedin of the Vancouver Canucks gets this POY entry started by setting up his brother Daniel with a very unique pass, allowing Daniel to get the puck behind the Red Wings defender and deposit the puck in the net. But it isnt the goal that impresses us, but rather the play that Henrik makes to get his brother the puck, truly a worthy POY nomination. Former Canuck and current Buffalo Sabre, Cody Hodgson shows off some fancy stick-work, clever thinking and great hands with his POY candidate. Hodgson cruises with the puck from the neutral zone to the net, dodging player after player, making his opponents looks like pylons in a skating drill. An incredible individual effort and a solid choice for our POY Showdown. You can watch the highlights and make your decision here (http:///poy.ddddddddddddtsn.ca).
