Another addition to the 2012-2013 Syracuse Orange basketball schedule is in the books as the school announced the Wagner Seahawks will visit the Carrier Dome on November 18.

Don't get cocky about Wagner. They're coming off a 25-6 season, the most wins in school history, and they return four starters. They lost to UConn early on but ending up beating Pitt (in Pitt!). A loss in the NEC Tournament killed their NCAA chances and, for whatever reason, they didn't participate in the other postseason tourneys.

SU is 2-0 all-time against the Seahawks, which includes a 101-55 beatdown in 1990 and an 85-52 thrashing in 1992.

So here's the updated 2012 non-conference schedule as we know it...

  • November 1st - Pace (exhibition)
  • November 4th - Bloomburg (exhibition)
  • November 9th - San Diego State (@ USS Midway)
  • November 18th - Wagner
  • November 30th - @Arkansas
  • December 5th - Long Beach State
  • TBD - Three unknown Gotham Classic opponents in Carrier Dome (likely 1st and 2nd week in Dec.)
  • December 22nd - Temple @MSG
  • December 31st - Central Conn. State
  • TBD - Drexel
