Gerry McNamara beat UAlbany last year to win the Albany Cup and now he wants to take on the Great Danes for a Governor’s Cup (hint hint NY State Legislature members). According to CBS Sports’ Jon Rothstein, the Orange will host UAlbany in the JMA Wireless Dome next season.
Syracuse is 9-0 all-time against UAlbany, the last meeting was a 102-85 Orange victory back in 2024. The Orange were led that night led by Donnie Freeman’s
24 points.
In addition to this game, we have reports that Syracuse will face Providence, and Indiana next season. It seems know that the Orange’s schedule is too full to play St. Bonaventure, but it sounds like that rivalry could be making a return in the near future.
We also have to keep an eye out for a potential Syracuse vs Siena exhibition game for next fall.
