With Syracuse holding a slim lead over Villanova in the second quarter of Friday night's game, Orange quarterback Terrel Hunt made an unfortunate decision and as a result, his team will have to play the rest of the game without him.

Hunt, upset with a tackle following a six-yard run on a draw play, threw a punch towards the face of a Villanova linebacker Dillon Lucas. Hunt was given a 15-yard personal foul penalty and removed from the game. Redshirt freshman Austin Wilson has entered the game to replace Hunt at quarterback.

Prior to his ejection, Hunt was 10-of-17 for 94 yards and added 25 yards on the ground.
