Hello, old friend foe! After years away from one another, the Syracuse Orange and West Virginia Mountaineers men’s basketball teams will meet on the court. This time, though, it’s in the NCAA Tournament. WVU comes into this game as the favorite, with a 3-seed and a comfortable win over Morehead State. Syracuse has its usual double-digit seed dark magic, Buddy Boeheim and a five-game winning streak over the ‘Eers.
Before this game tips off at 5:15 p.m. ET on CBS, let’s dive into some of the things you should be looking out for.
