Syracuse will need to beat an opponent for a third time to make ACC quarterfinals

We don’t yet know who the Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team will face in the second round of the ACC Tournament. However, whichever opponent it is will certainly be a familiar one.

Syracuse faces the winner of tonight’s game between the Boston College Eagles and Pittsburgh Panthers tomorrow night. The Orange are 4-0 against that group this season. Getting a third win against either, though, probably won’t be as easy.

Both BC and Pitt have struggled since SU joined the conference for 2013-14, yet this was the first time the Orange earned a 4-0 sweep in the conference-mandated annual home-and-home series against both teams.
