The luster of Saturday’s stunning upset by Syracuse at Louisville still hasn’t worn off.

On Monday, the Big East rewarded three Syracuse players for their efforts in SU’s 38-35 win over then-No. 18 Louisville, the Orange’s first win over a ranked team since November 2004.

SU quarterback Andrew Robinson was named the conference’s offensive player of the week, kick returner Max Suter was awarded Big East special teams player of the week and defensive end Jameel McClain was named to the conference’s weekly honor roll.

Robinson went 17-of-26 against the Cardinals and fell two passing yards shy of the all-time school record (425) set by Marvin Graves in 1992. Suter returned Syracuse’s first kickoff for a touchdown since 1998 and McClain had a sack, forced a fumble and intercepted a pass.

Miami game on TV?

A Time Warner Sports spokesman confirmed Monday that the cable company is in talks to carry the broadcast of the Syracuse-Miami (Ohio) game this Saturday.

Jeff Unaitis, vice president of public affairs for the Syracuse division of Time Warner Cable, said in a phone interview that Time Warner is in ‘preliminary plans to pick it up via satellite.’ The game is being televised in Ohio on the Ohio News Network.

Because Time Warner is contractually obligated to show the Big East game of the week – Akron at Connecticut, at noon, on Time Warner Sports channel 26 – the SU game may be shown on another station in Syracuse.

‘We’re not exactly sure on what channel you’ll see it, but it looks like we’ll have it,’ Unaitis said.

In addition, the Oct. 6 home game against West Virginia will be a noon kickoff, SU Athletics announced Monday. That game will serve as the Big East game of the week and be shown on channel 26.
