Orange Weekly: January 13, 2021

Syracuse, N.Y.—No matter who the Syracuse University men’s basketball team played on Tuesday night, it felt like the Orange just needed to win.

SU got the 77-61 victory over Pittsburgh, evened its record at 8-8 and now moves on to face a Florida State team that it defeated once already this season but also a Seminoles team that handed Miami its first ACC loss this week.

Syracuse.com’s Brent Axe and Mike Waters discuss that and more on the latest episode of “Orange Weekly” presented by Crouse Health.

Brent and Mike also discuss why 5-star freshman Benny Williams isn’t seeing more time on the court, the importance of center Jesse Edwards staying out of foul trouble and preview SU’s next game against Florida State.

Brent also tells you about SU Football’s new transfer quarterback Dan Villari, who brings some excitement and competition into the quarterback room for Dino Babers.

“Orange Weekly” streams live every Thursday at 1:00 p.m. on Facebook and YouTube.

You can watch the show in the YouTube clip above.
