Syracuse basketball did what they had to in a gritty victory over the Wake Forest Demon Deacons.
Over the last batch of games, the Orange struggled from long-range but finally in this one got it going early thanks to some fireworks from Buddy Boeheim.
In the first 12 minutes of the game, Boeheim cashed in four-of-five attempts from deep to give Syracuse the early edge.
Although something that happened in this game and quite frankly has been a theme all season is foul trouble. All of SU’s big dudes got their hands dirty in the first half and a lot of them were just dumb mistakes.
