2) Who is an X-factor that could decide the game on Saturday for Syracuse?

Paul: Elijah Hughes 100 percent. He’s the second leading scorer on the team, he didn’t play last season due to the transfer rules. Elijah is such a dynamic piece that can shoot from beyond the arc, rebound, and really increase the tempo for this team. While everyone talks about Tyus Battle and Oshae Brissett and for good reason, Hughes is the guy who is really making things happen.
