Analyzing their past performances, Syracuse has demonstrated a robust offense and solid defense. In their last game against St. Francis (PA), they dominated with an impressive 85 points victory while holding their opponents to just 43 points. Their field goal percentage stood at 42 percent and they excelled in two-point attempts with a conversion rate of 44 percent. Notably, they capitalized on second-chance opportunities by scoring 22 points from offensive rebounds.


The game before that saw them secure a win over Cornell with 78 points, where they maintained consistency in three-point shots at a rate of 33 percent and showed prowess from the free-throw line hitting 74 percent of their shots. Their ability to convert turnovers into points was evident as they scored 17 points off turnovers.


In an away game against Ohio Bobcats, Syracuse came out strong again with an offensive display that racked up 82 points and maintained high efficiency inside the paint scoring another solid chunk of their total from there. Their defensive efforts were notable as well, converting opponent turnovers into significant scoring opportunities totaling at least one-fifth of their overall score.


The upcoming match is set against this backdrop of winning momentum for Syracuse Orange who will look to leverage home advantage within the familiar confines of JMA Wireless Dome—a venue known for its vibrant atmosphere which could play into boosting player morale and performance.


Fans can expect Syracuse to continue exploiting fast breaks and second-chance scores while maintaining defensive pressure that has been instrumental in previous victories. With these trends in mind, it's shaping up to be an exciting contest where home-court advantage might just tip scales further in favor of Syracuse Orange.
