Syracuse continues to struggle in the ACC, as the Orange has not played its best basketball lately amid a three-game losing streak. Things continued to get ugly Monday after a 67-62 loss to Virginia at home as coach Jim Boeheim snapped at reporters multiple times, which has become a theme at press conferences in recent days.
The Orange took a four-point lead into the final 10 minutes of the game but scored just 10 points the rest of the way. Boeheim blamed the loss on missed free throws and open 3-pointers; Syracuse shot 3-for-15 from 3-point range and 11-for-18 from the free-throw line.
