Boeheim's Record Vs: 22-12

Last Game: You probably don't care to remember it but it was Syracuse's first loss of the 2011-2012 season, a 67-58 decision in South Bend, which ended with a court-storming. Enough of that.

Notre Dame Last Year: The Irish finished the season with a 22-12 record and 13-5 finish in the Big East. They lost in the "second" round of the NCAA Tournament to Xavier.

Notre Dame Coach: Mike Brey (13th) - The turtlenecked one has put Notre Dame in the postseason in every one of his seasons there, including eight NCAAs. He's 6-12 against Syracuse.

"Fear Me, I've Killed Hundreds Of Timelords": Jack Cooley, who just looks like the kind of guy born to play at Notre Dame and for you to hate. He's a double-double machine and leads the Big East in rebounding. He scored 17 and grabbed ten boards in the win over SU last year.

Fun Fact: Jerami Grant and brother Jerian Grant will be facing off against one another and should see plenty of time on the court at the same time.

Unexciting Reason To Watch: You really enjoy big, doofy white guys playing basketball.

Exciting Reason To Watch: Syracuse puts its home-winning streak on the line and looks to put this losing streak behind them on Big Monday. This is required viewing.
