The Syracuse Orange upset the Duke Blue Devils! At Cameron Indoor! It happened, and as a result, Orange fans finally get to hit reset on a rough start to the season and look out longingly at a suddenly more promising future (for now).

In this week's episode, John Cassillo and Dan Lyons review everything that happened vs. Duke on Monday night, preview Syracuse game against Virginia, and of course, discuss beer. Some of the larger talking points:

  • How has the 30-second shot clock impacted offenses (and defenses) around the country?
  • Can Virginia "Virginia up" this game on Saturday? (and will the game even be played?)
  • The USC Trojans are a quality basketball team, which we discuss in earnest
  • Laughing at Marquette and Indiana and Tom Crean because that's all fun to do
  • Discussing how Syracuse football's recruiting isn't worse, it's just different
  • Way-too-early NCAA Tournament picks, that also include Villanova shade
  • Want more beer? Follow John and Dan on Untappd!

Plan accordingly: This podcast is just under an hour long. We talk a lot about Syracuse basketball, Orange football recruiting and beer, while also struggling to stay on topic for extended portions of the show.
