Syracuse Orange (2-3) vs. Wake Forest Demon Deacons (4-1) First-Half Thread

The Syracuse Orange have a chance to end the first half of the 2016 season with a 3-3 record, which, all things considered, would be considered a great place to be. All that's standing in their way is the Wake Forest Demon Deacons (4-1, 1-1) and the aftereffects of Hurricane Matthew.

Kickoff is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. and the game will be televised on RSN. That includes ACC Network Extra/WatchESPN, FOX Sports South/FOX Sports Carolinas, FOX Sports Sun, FOX Sports Midwest/FOX Sports Indiana, Comcast SportsNet Mid-Atlantic Plus, YES, NESN Plus, ROOT Sports Pittsburgh, SportsTime Ohio, FOX Sports Detroit Plus, FOX Sports North, FOX Sports Wisconsin Plus, FOX Sports Southwest, FOX Sports Arizona, FOX Sports San Diego, and FOX Sports Prime Ticket.
