The Syracuse Orange men’s basketball program has officially hit rock bottom.
On Tuesday night, they dropped their fourth straight game by double digits with an embarrassing 96-76 home loss to the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.
Syracuse trailed by just four at halftime but once again the defense was absolutely atrocious as they gave up 62 second-half points.
Benny Williams led the Orange with a game-high 24 points. Joe Girard netted 19 points, Jesse Edwards poured in 17, and Judah Mintz added 16.
