The fact that Syracuse and Georgetown no longer belong to the same conference didn't seem to bother anyone in the Carrier Dome on Saturday. Not the 24,000-plus fans, not the players, not the coaches. The game between the Orange and Hoyas added to the lore of the series between the two schools.
Georgetown led virtually the entire first half and took a 35-22 advantage into the locker room at halftime. Syracuse's 22 points tied for its lowest first-half output of the season. The Orange shot just 25 percent from the field in the first 20 minutes, including a 1-for-14 performance from 3-point range.
