Yes, there’s a much bigger sporting event going on this weekend, but for the Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team, THIS is the main event. With SU sitting outside the bubble for the most part, a strong win for the NCAA Tournament resume would certainly be appreciated. Now, will the Clemson Tigers oblige? They’re 2-4 in their last six games, but also beat Louisville and North Carolina in that stretch.
Before things get going on Saturday, the TNIAAM staff makes some picks about what happens between SU and Clemson.

Syracuse 72, Clemson 69
I expect Kadary Richmond to get more minutes in this game after his outing against NC State.
