Syracuse vs. Pittsburgh preview: Five things to watch

It’s been a tough stretch of games for the Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team (7-3, 1-2) since returning from their second pause since the start of November. However, they can at least make things a little better by beating the Pittsburgh Panthers (6-2, 2-1) and avenging last week’s brutal loss. As you recall, SU was up 18 at one point, then faltered down the stretch against a shorthanded Panthers squad. Not ideal, especially when both teams are on the bubble...

Before the game tips off for a nooner on ACC Network Extra this Saturday, we wanted to preview some of the most important things to watch out for.
