Fab Melo finished with eight points and three rebounds in Syracuse’s 85-67 win on Saturday over Connecticut. Normally, you’d expect Melo’s points to come on a variety of putbacks and dunks.
Wednesday night, #2 Syracuse and #12 Georgetown added another chapter to their illustrious rivalry, as the Orange (24-1, 11-1 Big East) outlasted the Hoyas (18-5, 8-4) in overtime at the Carrier Dome, 64-61.
The bad news is Syracuse played the game the way Georgetown wanted it to be played. The good news is they won. The bad news is they still have a serious rebounding problem. The good news is…still the same…they won.
Joseph scored a career-high 29 points, including the game-winning 3-pointer with 28 seconds remaining, as the Orange edged Georgetown 64-61 in overtime on Wednesday night.
