Syracuse Basketball: Orange Schedule Exhibition Against DII Florida Southern

Who says Syracuse Orange basketball schedules soft in November? We're playing a defending National Champion!

Okay, so it's 2015 NCAA Division II champion Florida Southern and it's an exhibition game in the Carrier Dome on November 8, but you really should have been more specific about your demands...

The Moccasins went 36-1 last season, winning their final 25 games, including the National Title game over Indiana of Pennsylvania (which is not, incidentally, IUPUI. Go figure). It was their second National Title and first since 1981. They're also Sunshine State Conference royalty, having won the regular season crown and the tournament 22 times each since 1975.
