Orange, Hoyas renew their rivalry at the Dome

Coming off a 17-point home win over UAlbany earlier this week, Syracuse's men's basketball team looks to continue its winning ways Saturday — against a familiar foe. An old Big East rivalry returns as Georgetown and the Orange tip off at 2:30 p.m. Saturday. Both the 7-2 Hoyas and 5-4 Orange have beaten UAlbany and lost to Notre Dame; Georgetown is coming off an eight-day layoff, as their last game was a Dec. 6 loss at West Virginia.
