On Jan. 26, Syracuse will play at North Carolina. The game will be at 7 p.m. on ESPN. Syracuse will make its second Big Monday appearance on the final Big Monday game of the year when the Orange hosts Virginia at the Carrier Dome on March 2.

Who is doing itself a service with the NCAA tournament selection committee, and who is leaving itself vulnerable? Up today is Boston College.[/I] When is it OK to load up half of a nonconference schedule with games a team has no business losing?

Christian's first team will probably take some lumps in nonconference play, but there's a good chance it enters league play at or even above .500 and feeling somewhat decent about itself.
