The Minute After: Syracuse
Thoughts on an 83-80 win against the Orange:
Mercy. No one wanted to give this one up.
Back and forth the Hoosiers and Orange went, neither team able to break loose.
Eleven ties. Thirteen lead changes. Indiana led for 16:02, Syracuse for 18:28.
Five points was the biggest lead either team could build in the second half. Indiana seemed to have enough control late, until it didn’t. Up five points with 13 seconds to go after a pair of Bryce Lindsay free throws, Sadiq White Jr. made a second-chance layup after a Gavin Doty missed 3-pointer with 4.7 seconds to play.
