No. 9 Syracuse Orange (10-1) vs. Alcorn State Braves (2-12) GameThread

The Orange are looking to put the Temple loss behind them and start anew just as Big East play looms.

USA TODAY Sports

Hey, remember all that stuff you said about Jim Boeheim winning his 901st game last week? You get to say it again tonight when the Syracuse Orange host the Alcorn St. Braves in the final game of the Gotham Classic (I know...).

The game will be televised on Time Warner Cable Sports and SNY and tips at 7:00 p.m. EST

The Orange are looking to put the Temple loss behind them and start anew just as Big East play looms. They'll be doing plenty of tinkering and expect to see SU try out some new things when it comes to defensive rebounding, the middle of the zone and three-point shooting. As for free throws, well, they just gotta make them.

And Brandon Triche needs to be a leader cause he can lead as a leader and he's the leader to lead us as we were told before the season.

Thankfully, C.J. Fair, Baye Moussa Keita and Jerami Grant were able to make it to the game. That's good.

By all accounts, this will be Syracuse's easiest game of the season. #TacoTime by halftime, you guys.
