The Syracuse Orange have been on an impressive run, showcasing a strong offense and defense in their past games. Their latest victory over St. Francis (PA) Red Flash was a dominant display with an 85-43 scoreline. The team excelled with 59 rebounds and maintained an assist-to-turnover ratio of 1.1, indicating efficient ball handling and teamwork.


In another recent game against Cornell Big Red, Syracuse emerged victorious with a score of 78-71. They demonstrated their ability to close out games strongly by scoring 29 points in the fourth quarter alone and converting free throws at a rate of approximately 74 percent.


Their away performance against Ohio Bobcats also highlighted their resilience as they secured an 82-62 win despite being tied five times and experiencing nine lead changes throughout the match. With a field goal percentage of approximately 43 percent and scoring evenly spread across all quarters, it's clear that consistency has been key for Syracuse.


The KFC Yum! Center is known for its vibrant atmosphere which could play into the home team's advantage; however, Syracuse has shown they can keep composure under pressure in hostile environments.


Fans can expect Syracuse to continue leveraging their strengths: rebounding prowess (averaging over fifty rebounds per game), capitalizing on turnovers (averaging over fifteen points off turnovers per game), and maintaining solid shooting from both inside the paint and beyond the arc.


With these trends in mind, supporters should look forward to what could be another commanding performance by Syracuse as they aim to extend their winning streak on enemy territory.
