The Boston College Eagles (9-6, 1-3 ACC) men’s basketball team is looking to get back in the win column on Saturday afternoon as it hosts the Syracuse Orange (7-8, 1-3 ACC) for a conference clash. Both programs are hoping to secure their second ACC win of the season.

Staley is signed through the 2029-30 season, earning $4 million a year to start with an annual $250,000 escalator.

The Eagles led at the half Sunday, but have dropped four straight, the last three coming against ranked Atlantic Coast Conference competition.

The Duke Blue Devils extended the nation’s longest winning streak to 12 games, surviving Boston College’s early hot shooting and physical play to beat the Eagles behind Cooper Flagg’s 28 points.

Playing in his native New England with hundreds of fans from Maine in attendance, Cooper Flagg scored 28 points to lead Duke past Boston College on Saturday.

The Miami game is scheduled for Hard Rock Stadium on Aug. 30 but it could move anywhere from Aug. 28 to Sept. 1.

For the first time since the 2013-14 season, South Carolina is 0-5 in the SEC. After two close losses to Auburn and Vanderbilt, South Carolina fell apart in the second half for an 82-62 loss to Oklahoma.
