Can Syracuse Orange Outplay UConn Huskies at Gampel Pavilion?

As the Syracuse Orange prepare to face the UConn Huskies, fans are eager to see if their team can maintain their momentum. The upcoming game, set at the Harry A. Gampel Pavilion in Storrs, CT, is expected to be a thrilling encounter.

Analyzing past performances, Syracuse has shown a promising trend. In their recent game against Arizona Wildcats at a neutral site – which happens to share the same venue as the upcoming match – they secured a victory with 74 points over Arizona's 69. Their scoring improved consistently across quarters and peaked in the final period with 23 points.

Syracuse's statistical trends reveal strengths and areas for improvement. They demonstrated solid two-point shooting accuracy at 54 percent and an overall field goal percentage of 45 percent. Points in paint were significant for them, totaling 38 points which indicates an aggressive offensive strategy inside the arc.

However, free-throw performance was less impressive at only 52 percent accuracy – an aspect they'll need to enhance against UConn Huskies' defense. Moreover, while Syracuse managed more total rebounds than Arizona with 37 rebounds (including both defensive and offensive), ball handling could be tightened up as they turned over possession 17 times during that game.

The Orange also showed defensive prowess with steals leading to fast break opportunities but will need to maintain this intensity throughout all quarters against UConn's offense.

With these analytics in mind, fans can expect Syracuse Orange to focus on improving free throws and maintaining strong defense while capitalizing on scoring opportunities inside the paint.

The much-anticipated matchup is scheduled for March 25th at Harry A. Gampel Pavilion; tip-off is set for noon ET (EDT). Fans won't want to miss this clash of titans and can catch all the action live from Storrs or tune into broadcasts covering this exciting event.
