Welcome back to another installment of Boston College Eagles basketball. This weekend, the Eagles will host their first game of the season at Conte Forum against a familiar ACC opponent, the Syracuse Orange.
Syracuse is off to a decent start to their season - they currently hold a 3-1 record with their only loss coming against #21 Rutgers. As for their wins, they come against some mid to low-tier opponents. This includes a close win in the season opener against Bryant and two blow out wins against Niagara and Rider. Keeping in mind their opponents, Boeheim’s defense has been one of the best in the NCAA.
