Syracuse Basketball: WF Loss Could Come Back To Haunt The ‘Cuse

Ugh.

That’s all I have to say about the SU hoops outfit’s tight loss at Wake Forest on Wednesday night.

Let’s give credit where credit is due: the Demon Deacons (8-6, 1-1), well-coached by former Kansas star Danny Manning, executed a terrific game plan and deserved this result.

WF dominated the ‘Cuse on the glass, becoming the first roster to out-rebound the Orange (12-3, 1-1) so far in the 2017-18 campaign.

The Demon Deacons, despite not having their leading scorer the entire second half, made some huge 3-pointers down the stretch, took care of the ball, and connected on enough free throws to emerge victorious.
