They did it again this time on a C.J. Fair Bucket with 6.2 seconds left on a steal by Rakeem Christmas and an assist by none other than Tyler Ennis. The NC State Wolfpack aka Carolina Red went stone cold after leading 50-45 at the 6:21 mark in the 2nd half. They managed to score five points after that on a TJ Warren "J" and three free throws by Ralston Turner. It was all Syracuse after that 50-45 deficit as they close getting 'Stops" and on a 11-5 run.

The Wolfpack was led by All-ACC Nominee T.J. Warren who had a game-high 23 points on 11-22 shooting. Center Kyle Washington added 14 and grabbed ten Oranges with PF Ralston Turner chipping in with 13. Those three players accounted for 50 of Carolina Red's 55 points. The Pack shooting 4 for 14 from the Arc and 7 of 14 from the Line put them in Harm's Way which was the Syracuse's Way.

'Cuse gets all their scoring from the front line as well with Rakeem Christmas going for 14 points, hauling in a dozen Oranges, and blocking seven shots. Jerami Grant joined that party with a double double of his own adding 12 points and grabbing fourteen boards. C.J. Fair who had the game-winning lay-up had 11 points on just 5 of 16 shooting. The 'Cuse Starting Guards of Tyler Ennis and Trevor Cooney combined for 17 points and seven helpers as they also had two Money Balls. This is what makes the Orange so dangerous the balance on the front line and their outstanding back court.

The Orange moves to 25-0 and 12-0 in the ACC as the Pack falls to 16-9 and 6-6 in ACC play. 'Cuse had "Date Night" at Cameron Indoor on the Menu this week and lookout!
