It’s a big night for the Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team (2-0), who will be playing their first game of the season against a Power Five opponent. The Orange are in Indianapolis to take on the Indiana Hoosiers (2-0).
Both undefeated squads are coming off dominant, double-digit non-conference home wins. Each side is looking for their first signature win of the 2026-27 season. For Syracuse, it’s also time to see what this team looks like against a much tougher opponent than New Haven and Central
Connecticut.
Tip-off between the Orange and Hoosiers is set for 6:30 p.m. EST at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, home of the Indiana Pacers. Fans can also watch the game on FS1 or listen for free on cuse.com.
Of note, Syracuse will still likely be without Aiden Tobiason, whom Coach Gerry McNamara said on Thursday would not be ready for tonight’s game due to a hamstring injury.
