Syracuse men’s basketball to play Georgetown Hoyas in December showdown

For the 99th time ever, the Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team will take on the Georgetown Hoyas on Saturday, December 9th at the Capital One Arena to continue an iconic series among two long-time rivals.

The announced matchup versus the Hoyas means the Orange have finalized the complete non-conference portion of their schedule for the upcoming season, which includes 11 regular season games and two exhibitions.

Syracuse is 53-45 all-time in the series versus Georgetown dating back to 1930, but is just 18-31 on the road. The Orange most recently defeated the Hoyas 83-64 at home this past season, and will look to secure a road victory against Georgetown for the first time since the 2017-2018 season.
