Syracuse Basketball: SU’s tilt at Clemson is for all the marbles

The 2018-19 regular season concludes this Saturday afternoon for the Syracuse basketball squad when the Orange travels to Clemson in a monster Atlantic Coast Conference match-up. This encounter has enormous ramifications for both the ‘Cuse (19-11, 10-7) and the Tigers (18-12, 8-9).

Regardless of Saturday’s outcome, Syracuse will receive either the No. 6 seed or the No. 7 seed in the league tournament that begins next week. However, if SU knocks off Clemson, our beloved boys in Orange will get the No. 6 seed. More importantly, such a result will provide the ‘Cuse with a 20th overall triumph, which I confidently believe will punch SU’s ticket to the field of 68.
