The Syracuse Orange (4-2) return home for the first time in two weeks to square off with the LSU Tigers (4-2) in the first ACC/SEC Challenge tonight at 7 p.m. on ESPN2.
FRESH TAKES: 2026 NFL Preview (podcast) Syracuse spent last week in Hawaii at the Maui Invitational, where they played three games in three days. The Orange closed the tournament with a win against Chaminade after losing to Tennessee and Gonzaga.
LSU, however, has won three consecutive games, beating North Texas, Wake Forest, and North Florida.
Syracuse and LSU will meet for just the second time in program history. The only previous matchup between the Orange and the Tigers was February 16, 1985, when #8 Syracuse defeated LSU, 76-64.
