ACC fine Syracuse.

The Atlantic Coast Conference has fined Syracuse $25,000 and issued a public reprimand for feigning injuries during Saturday’s 34-21 win over Clemson. The ACC cited one incident with 9:25 left in the game, calling it unethical and against the spirit of the rules. The national coordinator of football officials agreed that the actions violated fair play. Clemson quarterback Cade Klubnik noted Syracuse’s defensive injuries stopped play and disrupted the Tigers’ momentum. Coach Dabo Swinney advised against frustration over the situation. The fine will go to the Weaver-James-Corrigan-Swofford Postgraduate Scholarship account.
