Coach Boeheim saw his team struggle early in the season, partially due to injuries and poor shooting. He has a lot of returning talent and experience from a team that fared well in the NCAA Tournament last year. His team is hitting their stride once again and are 5-1 in their last six, including a shocking win at #1 Duke. Pittsburgh comes in with an equal record but think that is a bit deceptive at this point. The Panthers have had little exposure on the road, where they have played just three games and are 0-3. Carrier Dome isn't a likely place for a winless road team to find magic. Take Syracuse.
