BUFFALO, N.Y. — In his preseason press conference before his third year as Syracuse’s head coach, Adrian Autry said his goal is to make the NCAA Tournament every year. Across Autry’s first two years at the helm and Jim Boeheim’s final two, the Orange are amid their longest March Madness drought in over five decades.

If they can snap the skid come March, there’s a possibility they play their first NCAA Tournament game since 2021 at the KeyBank Center — one of the eight locations hosting the first and second rounds this season.
