SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) -- Eric Dungey tied a school record by tossing five touchdown passes to pace Syracuse University to a 62-10 rout of Wagner in its home opener on Saturday. 

The Orange improved to 2-0 while FCS Wagner dropped to 1-1. 

Playing into the third quarter, Dungey completed 23 of 32 passes for 218 yards and threw one interception. He hit five different receivers for scores: Sean Riley, Nykeim Johnson, Jamal Custis, Taj Harris and Ravian Pierce.

Two previous SU quarterbacks have thrown five touchdown passes in a game: Ryan Nassib  (2010 vs. Maine) and Zack Mahoney (2016 vs. Pittsburgh).

Dontae Strickland rushed for a pair of scores for the Orange, which blew the game open with a 45-point first half to tie a school mark. Syracuse scored 45 against Miami in 1998 and Colgate in 1959. 

Week one starter Luke Massei opened the game at quarterback for the Seahawks but was yanked after tossing an interception on his team's first series. He was replaced by T.J. Linta, a graduate student who transferred from Brown. Linta suffered a minor injury late in the preseason and was not available for the opener against Bowie State.

Linta completed seven of 15 passes for 131 yards and a touchdown. He was shaken up in the third quarter, and Graham Lindman finished the game.
