ahh NVM I just saw who the OP was

Syracuse beat Texas for their only Natty

Never lost to Texas in the 3 games played.

Cuse isn't an elite program but they have been playing big boy Football for over 100 years and last had a nice run from 1984 to 2001.

I think Syracuse gets elevated above their actual power standing due to a few factors: 1959 Team was one of the best all time teams, first Black Heisman (Ernie Davis), Jim Brown, unique stadium, huge amount of sports media alumni and huge basketball program helps too.

Sadly, they have only had a few good years since 2001. It has been hard for Cuse to recruit since about 2000.
