Many college students come back to their hometown for Thanksgiving, and go to bars the night before to meet their friends whom they haven't seen while away at school. Many bars mark the occasion by having promotions and drink specials as well. Thanksgiving is usually a low stress holiday for college aged kids, where gifts don't need to be purchased, and older family members do the preparing of meals. This leaves college aged kids with more expendable cash, and the luxury of eating a big meal the day after drinking without having to prepare it.[/SIZE][/I] [B][FONT=Arial][SIZE=6][COLOR=rgb(255, 128, 0)]SU News [/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT][/B] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=4][URL="http://www.syracuse.com/orangebasketball/index.ssf/2017/11/syracuse_basketball_vs_toledo_10_things_to_watch_for.html"]Syracuse basketball vs. Toledo: 10 things to watch for[/URL] (PS; Waters)[/SIZE] [SIZE=4][/SIZE] [SIZE=5]The Syracuse Orange men's basketball team will host the Toledo Rockets on Wednesday at the Carrier Dome.

And that’s a good thing, because the schedule is about to get a lot tougher. The Orange opened this season with wins over Cornell, Iona, Texas Southern and Oakland. Cornell is a middle-of-the-pack Ivy League team, Iona (Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference) and Texas Southern (Southwestern Athletic Conference) are mid-majors that made the 2017 NCAA Tournament, and Oakland was the preseason favorite to win the Horizon League. And on Wednesday, Nov. 22, 7 p.m., at the Carrier Dome, the Orange will continue its march through the mid-majors when it plays a Toledo team from the Mid-American Conference that defeated Oakland 87-74 Nov. 18 as part of the round-robin Hoophall Miami Invitational that also includes Syracuse, Texas Southern and Kansas. After Toledo, the Orange faces a three-game gauntlet against Maryland in the Big Ten-ACC Challenge Monday at the Dome, No. 4 Kansas Dec. 2 in the Hoophall Miami Invitational championship game in Miami, and Connecticut Dec. 5 in the Jimmy V Classic at Madison Square Garden in New York City. ...
