The Orange and the Raiders will make it 167 times when the teams meet at the Carrier Dome on Monday, Dec. 22. Syracuse University officials announced the date of the game today. Syracuse holds a 121-45 edge in the series between the two Upstate New York schools. Syracuse has won the last 48 games in a row against Colgate. The 48-game win streak is the longest active streak between two NCAA Division I schools. Syracuse defeated Colgate, 69-50, last season. ...

Saturday, Moyer [URL='https://twitter.com/ballout4ever/statuses/497849738025504769']committed to Syracuse[/URL]. Naturally, because he is from the Columbus area, there is a rush to figure out how he could possibly escape the grasp and lure of the Buckeyes. As the four-star recruit [URL='http://www.syracuse.com/orangebasketball/index.ssf/2014/08/syracuse_basketball_gets_commitment_from_2016_recruit_matthew_moyer.html']told Syracuse.com[/URL], his reasoning is fairly fundamental in the world of recruiting. "I had a whole lot of options, but Syracuse just felt like the perfect place for me. Their style of play fits me," Moyer said. "I have a great relationship with Coach Boeheim and Coach GMac (assistant coach Gerry McNamara)." Among the many reasons why Ohio State was unable to cultivate the same sort of relationship with Moyer and his family: scholarship arithmetic. The Buckeyes already have four commitments in the class of 2015. Esa Ahmad and Carlton Bragg remain high-priority recruits, so they could end up with as many as six in that class. ...[/I] [IMG]http://imgick.syracuse.com/home/syr-media/width620/img/orangebasketball_impact/photo/15607678-mmmain.jpg[/IMG] [B][URL='http://www.syracuse.com/orangebasketball/index.ssf/2014/08/hometown_bracket_challenge_which_team_of_former_syracuse_basketball_players_will.html']Hometown Bracket Madness: Which Team Will Prevail? (PS; Ditota)[/URL][/B] [I]LeBron James was the inspiration. After King James declared he was heading home to play for the Cleveland Cavaliers, ESPN wondered what the NBA would look like if all its superstars defected to their hometowns. The website [URL='http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/post/_/id/11214314/here-nba-look-every-player-pulled-lebron-went-home']produced its own rosters[/URL]. Carmelo Anthony, for instance, would be paired with Ty Lawson, Rudy Gay, Kevin Durant and Roy Hibbert on a D.C. NBA team. (We know he's from Baltimore; ESPN took a bit of liberty.) That led me to wonder what hometown teams of Syracuse players would look like. And it led Mike Waters to want to make a tournament out of the whole thing. With that, we're introducing our Syracuse Hometown Bracket Madness. We've formed eight teams. We'll pit them against each other over the next week. You, the voter, will decide which team advances in the tournament by voting in a poll. ...

Carmelo Anthony leads the Baltimore team. The Washington, D.C., squad includes both Lawrence Moten and Dave Bing. Team Philly boasts Hakim Warrick and Dion Waiters. There's a Syracuse team and a Rochester team. But there's no team from Detroit. Over the years, Syracuse has attracted some talented players out of the Motor City, including Derrick Coleman, Todd Burgan, Erich Santifer and Eric Devendorf. But the Detroit team lacked another player to round out its starting five, thereby eliminating Detroit from the Hometown Bracket Madness field. "I blame that on Coach,'' Coleman said, referring to SU coach Jim Boeheim. "It's his fault for not recruiting more guys from Michigan.'' ...

Not because of any single game that warranted attention (and at first glance, there isn't one contest that qualifies as unmistakable must-see-TV). Rather, it's because the Tigers had their slim NCAA tournament hopes scuttled rather quickly last season because of their schedule strength concerns. So, did Clemson learn its lesson (even if the jury remains out on whether it will matter this time around)?
