Syracuse Basketball: Holy Cross Visiting Carrier Dome on November 28

This was a later note this past Friday, but one still worth visiting as the Orange continue to fill out their non-conference schedule for 2014-15. The Orange have added Holy Cross to the slate, hosting the Crusaders on November 28. As you might remember, SU also faces Loyola at the Carrier Dome just three days earlier, too.

Last season, Holy Cross went 20-14, finishing third in the Patriot League and earning themselves a trip to the CIT, where they lost to Yale in the second round. All-time, the Crusaders have actually played the Orange pretty close, with 12 wins versus just 13 losses. Syracuse has won the last four meetings, including a 72-64 victory in late 2006 that seems FAR too close until you remember that team's overall performance.

So updating the 2014-15 schedule, here's how things look right now:
