Well, things have taken a bit of a turn of late. Following a five-game winning streak in ACC play, the Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team has since lost two, scraped together a win over lowly Wake Forest, and then (largely without Elijah Hughes) lost to NC State at home. We weren’t expecting to beat the Florida State Seminoles on Saturday, but doing so is a lot more crucial now.
FSU, if you haven’t been paying attention, is 20-4 on the year (10-3 in the ACC) and a legitimate contender both atop the ACC and perhaps college basketball as a whole.
