Brent Axe chats live following Syracuse basketball's 86-79 victory over No. 7 North Carolina at the Dome. It was Syracuse's first win over a Top 10 team since defeating Duke in January of 2019.
The Orange got a powerhouse performance from its backcourt with Judah Mintz (25) and JJ Starling (23) combining for 48 points. The Orange shot 63% against the Tar Heels, the first time UNC has allowed a team over 60% since 2015. Can this performance carry over through the rest of the season and how did it show Syracuse growing up as a team?
The students stormed the court at the Dome. Axe talked about why SU fans saying "act like you've been there before" need to get over it but does call out some other questionable behavior by the students during the game.
Brent also played back some audio from the locker room from Coach Autry, Judah Mintz and JJ Starling and reacted to opinions and comments from Syracuse Sports Insiders about the game.
