On November 3, Syracuse basketball begins its 2025-26 season against fellow Empire State foe Binghamton at the JMA Wireless Dome. The Orange is hoping to return to the NCAA Tournament after a four-year absence, and some observers are more optimistic about the 'Cuse than others ahead of the upcoming campaign.
In 2025-26, the Orange will play 13 non-conference games and 18 Atlantic Coast Conference encounters. The 'Cuse regular-season schedule has some challenging affairs, but there are also plenty of winnable contests for Syracuse basketball.
