When the Syracuse Orange and UConn Huskies tip off tonight, it’ll be the team’s first-ever regular season matchup at Madison Square Garden. Despite the stakes being a bit lower than previous meetings, it got us thinking about all the times SU beat the Huskies with something more on the line. Ends up they’ve done that 10 different times since 1957.
Also ends up that 10 was Trevor Cooney’s jersey number, which allows us to post the photo above with ease, despite the fact that last year’s Battle 4 Atlantis was a regular season game.
Walk with us down memory lane below.
