Will Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim use more man-to-man defense this season? (Mike's Mailbox)

Syracuse, N.Y. -- The college basketball season is almost here.

Syracuse will play the first of its two exhibition games this Wednesday when the Orange hosts Southern New Hampshire at the Carrier Dome.

There has already been some big news around the ACC. North Carolina guard Joel Berry broke a bone in his right hand after pounding a door following a loss in a video game. Georgia Tech guard Josh Okogie is going to be out a while after suffering a compound fracture in a finger during the Yellow Jackets' exhibition loss to Georgia State last week.
