Autry’s first game won’t necessarily be an easy one. The Wildcats are looking for their second-consecutive ACC victory after defeating Boston College 74-71 in overtime last season. New Hampshire did finish 267th overall in NET ranking with a 15-15 overall record, including a 9-7 record in the American East conference.
The match-up versus New Hampshire marks the second confirmed game Syracuse will play in the 2023-2024 season. The Orange will take on the Oregon Ducks in a neutral-site game in Sioux Falls, South Dakota on Dec. 17. Syracuse will also participate in the 2023 Maui Jim Maui Invitational, but the match-ups for that tournament remained to be determined.
The Orange’s first game for 2023-2024 will be an exhibition on October 27 against Division II Daemen University.
