Two teams with similar trajectories will square off in an ACC matchup Tuesday night as Syracuse battles Pittsburgh.
Syracuse is coming off drubbings from North Carolina (103-67) and Duke (86-66) over its last three games as Adrian Autry tries to keep the Orange Men competitive in the ACC in his first season since replacing Jim Boeheim.
Pittsburgh has just one win in five conference games this season and also lost to Duke and North Carolina by double figures over its last three games. If the Panthers want to build off last year’s run to the second round of the NCAA Tournament, they’ll need to start stacking conference wins in a hurry.
