"College Basketball Saturday with a classic ACC rivalry game"
Big game today is #2 Syracuse hosting #22 Pitt in a great storied ACC rivalry.
Syracuse is obviously the favorite especially at home, but Pitt and Jamie Dixon have really had Syracuse's number the last few years, even while on the road. Hard to really make anything of Pitt so far this year as this is the first real challenge.
Only 2 other games between top 25 teams today, both in the Big 12:
OK State at Kansas Oklahoma at Baylor
Some good conference games today though that may not be between 2 ranked teams but are usually good matchups: Michigan at Wisconsin Michigan St at Illinois Tennessee at Kentucky Louisville at Uconn NC State at Duke

11-man rotation, constant pressure D. Force turnovers, don't let a team establish half-court offense, cuz we can't defend in the half-court, we don't have the personnel.
Working great against State, unsurprisingly. Hopefully we keep it up and take this same strategy against tougher opponents.
