Episode Synopsis

Brent Axe recaps Syracuse basketball's 80-71 loss to Kansas in Las Vegas on Tuesday night. 



Syracuse failed to find an offensive rhythm or go-to guy with Donnie Freeman on the bench with an injury for the 2nd straight game. SU shot 32% (20-63) with a 7-30 (23%) mark from 3-point range against the Jayhawks. SU struggled from the free throw line against Kansas, shooting 13-23 (56.5%).



Kiyan Anthony was 2-12 against the Jayhawks, including 0-6 from 3-point range. Axe explains on the show how SU head coach Adrian Autry has to be careful with how much of a green light Anthony gets on offense if he's taking bad shots and doesn't have a noticeable matchup advantage. 



Axe also discussed how SU's losses to Houston and Kansas in Las Vegas put on added importance to SU's upcoming non-conference game against Tennessee at the JMA Dome.
