Saturday afternoon, #3 Syracuse was tripped up for the first time on the season, dropping an 83-79 decision to Temple in the Gotham Classic at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
20 minutes to win 901 for Jim Boeheim, and an 11-0 start or this year’s consensus Top 5 team. The only problem was a well-coached Temple team spoiled the fun for the majority on hand.
Through 10 games, the Owls have launched 223 shots from downtown. The volume shooting from downtown has produced mixed results, as Temple has shot just 29 percent.
