The Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team won its opening matchup of the 2017-18 season against Cornell, and now moves onto game No. 2. This evening, SU plays host to the Iona Gaels -- a team you’d think we’d play more often than once a decade or so. Iona’s 0-1 on the year after losing a nailbiter to Albany in the opener.
Things tip off at 7 p.m. ET from the Carrier Dome tonight. If you’re not there in-person, you can watch along with the rest of us on ACC Network Extra (WatchESPN... meh).
Before things get going, what should you be reading about the matchup?
