Oh that's right, the Syracuse Orange basketball team also plays on Saturday. We should probably preview that.

Date: Saturday, December 29th

Time: 7:00 p.m. EST

Location: Carrier Dome, Syracuse, NY

TV: Time Warner Cable Sports/SNY

Announcers: Whoever They Usually Get

Radio: Syracuse IMG Network/WAER 88.3/WTKW 99.5 FM/ESPN 97.7 FM/Sirius 112/XM 197

Records: Syracuse 10-1, Alcorn State 2-12

Rankings: Syracuse No. 7/9, Alcorn UNR

Alcorn's Last Game: The Alcorn St. Braves got beat up by Canisius, 87-74. Also worth noting that they lost to Temple by 17 a few weeks back.

Series: Syracuse leads 1-0.

Current Streak: 1, Syracuse

Last Game: The last time these two teams played, a Rautins was in the lineup. Leo Rautins. Syracuse beat Alcorn St. 110-77 in 1982.

Boeheim's Record Vs: 1-0

Alcorn Last Year: The Braves finished 10-20 last season. Not much to speak of.

Alcorn Coach: Luther Riley is in his second season at the helm. He's got a 12-32 record so far, so, he's got a ways to go to catch Boeheim.

"Fear Me, I've Killed Hundreds Of Timelords": Marquiz Baker is coming off a 30-point performance and is averaging 25.7 per game. Let's put a hand in his face.

Fun Fact: Check out the current standings of Alcorn's conference, the SWAC...

I'm starting to worry they might only get one NCAA bid this year, guys.

Unexciting Reason To Watch: This is by far Syracuse's worst opponent of the season. It's going to be a blowout and it's going to be boring.

Exciting Reason To Watch: Jim Boeheim has the chance to move to 901 wins all-time, one behind Bobby Knight. That's worth your time!
