Brent Axe recaps Syracuse basketball's 62-60 win over No. 13 Tennessee at the JMA Dome on Tuesday night. 

SU earned a much-needed signature non-conference win by taking down the Vols at the JMA Dome on Tuesday night. Not only for its NCAA Tournament resume, but to show the Orange fanbase and itself it could punch up and win a big game like this after losing three straight games to ranked teams in Las Vegas at the Players' Era Festival. 

Axe discusses how the defensive presence of William Kyle III (and surprisingly his free throws!) helped lift SU to victory along with a strong first half by Nate Kingz with 19 points and JJ Starling stepping up as a senior leader.

Brent Axe and Javon Edmonds recap Syracuse football's 34-12 loss to Boston College at the JMA Dome. 

As for the loss to BC itself, there really wasn't much to reflect on beyond another anemic performance from the Orange offense and the SU defense getting gashed for 433 yards by a 1-10 football team.

Javon and Brent focused most of the conversation on the offseason and 5 things Fran Brown has to do to get SU football back on track.

Brent Axe recaps Syracuse basketball's 95-64 loss to Iowa State in Las Vegas. 

After trailing by just one point at halftime, the Orange got blasted by the Cyclones in the second half (60-30) who went on to thump Syracuse by 31 points. 

Axe discussed how SU's 3-game stop in Las Vegas starting off promising but turned into a complete bust and how that reflects on SU head coach Adrian Autry (hint: not great).

Axe also talks about how SU's next game at Tennessee becomes an absolute must-win for the Orange and how no player stepped up enough to lead in Donnie Freeman's absence.

Brent Axe recaps Syracuse basketball's 80-71 loss to Kansas in Las Vegas on Tuesday night. 

Syracuse failed to find an offensive rhythm or go-to guy with Donnie Freeman on the bench with an injury for the 2nd straight game. SU shot 32% (20-63) with a 7-30 (23%) mark from 3-point range against the Jayhawks. SU struggled from the free throw line against Kansas, shooting 13-23 (56.5%).

Kiyan Anthony was 2-12 against the Jayhawks, including 0-6 from 3-point range. Axe explains on the show how SU head coach Adrian Autry has to be careful with how much of a green light Anthony gets on offense if he's taking bad shots and doesn't have a noticeable matchup advantage. 

Axe also discussed how SU's losses to Houston and Kansas in Las Vegas put on added importance to SU's upcoming non-conference game against Tennessee at the JMA Dome.

Brent Axe and Chris Carlson breakdown Syracuse football's 70-7 debacle in South Bend on Saturday afternoon.

With all due respect to the mighty Union College 75-0 victory over Syracuse in 1891, Axe says Saturday's game was the worst loss in the 136-year history of Syracuse football all things considered.

So does SU fix this after a season that has gone off the rails?

Axe and Carlson sort through the rubble to see if SU's incoming youth movement, with over 30 players committed in the Class of 2026, and their targets in the transfer portal can fix the problem.
