D.O. Sportscast episode 2: Sam Fortier joins the show to talk game day in Death Valley

Sam Fortier | Sports Editor

Syracuse played in front of more fans at Louisiana State on Saturday, an announced attendance of 96,044, than its first three games combined.

On this week’s installment of the D.O. Sportscast, Daily Orange sports editor Sam Fortier joins the show to discuss his recent trip to LSU, including the best food, tailgates and fans he discovered in his first trip to “Death Valley.” Fortier also breaks down what it was like to watch the Syracuse men’s cross country team train on its esteemed Sweet road training course and how difficult the course was for him to run in the new segment “behind the byline.”

The D.O. Sportscast is a weekly podcast which will be released on Monday mornings. The goal of the podcast is to bring new information to listeners about various different Syracuse sports via roundtable discussions with beat reporters and host Josh Schafer.
