Tonight will be the final Syracuse Orange appearance in the ACC/Big 10 Challenge.
With the Big 10’s move away from ESPN, the television network will end this series and begin an ACC/SEC challenge next season. This means the Orange head into tonight’s game with Illinois with an all-time record of 4-5 and will look to try and finish at .500. Syracuse has been 3-2 at home and 1-3 on the road in the Challenge.
Let’s look back at the Syracuse history:
2013- Syracuse beats Indiana 69-52 in the Carrier Dome. Seems unfair that after the Orange dismantled them in DC the previous spring to sent Tom Crean to the Dome, but it’s Tom Crean so do you really feel bad for him?
