Syracuse basketball (17-9 overall, 6-7 ACC) looks to bounce back from a harmful mid-week loss when it visits the Miami Hurricanes (18-7, 7-6) on Saturday afternoon.
The game tips off at 12 p.m. at the University of Miami Watsco Center in Coral Gables, Florida and will be televised on CBS. Ian Eagle and Bill Raftery will be the announcers.
Syracuse is coming off a 74-70 defeat on Wednesday night at home vs. NC State. It was a result that simultaneously damaged Orange NCAA hopes while solidifying the Wolfpack’s NCAA résumé.
