The Syracuse basketball squad will welcome in the Buffalo Bulls in the Carrier Dome Tuesday night. Here’s our expert panel’s predictions on the contest.

If the Syracuse basketball squad is going to turn it around, it won’t be easy. The Buffalo Bulls are in the midst of one of the best starts in school history and are ranked for the first time in their history.

The Bulls are 10-0 with three true road victories and return a ton of talent in CJ Massinburg and Nick Perkins who combine for over 30 points per game this season. The overall Bulls offense averages over 85 points per game and they like to run and gun.

The Orange will be looking for their second top 25 conquest of the season. Ironically enough last season’s home win vs Buffalo likely got the Orange into the tournament last season, they may need it again the way the season has started.

Tipoff is set for 8:00 p.m. in the loud house tonight between the Buffalo Bulls and the Syracuse Orange. How is this one going to play out? Our expert panel gave their takes for this critical matchup.
