Indiana finished 12-15 last season and went through a coaching change in the offseason. Former NBA head coach Mike Woodson has taken over the program. Indiana was led last season by Trayce Jackson-Davis. The 6-9 rising junior averaged 19 points and nine rebounds per game while shooting 51.7% from the floor. 

The most famous meeting between the two schools was the 1987 National Championship game, which Indiana won 74-73 on a baseline jumper by Keith Smart. Syracuse, however, has won all five matchups since. Five of the six meetings were neutral court contests. The one non-neutral court game was in the Dome in 2013, which happens to be the most recent meeting. Syracuse won that game 69-52 behind 21 points from Trevor Cooney. 

Here is a list of all of the matchups:

Title: Publisher All Syracuse Education: Roberts Wesleyan College Location: Syracuse, New York Expertise: Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting.  EXPERIENCE Mike McAllister has been covering Syracuse basketball, football and recruiting for more than a decade. Mike's career started with his own free blog as a way to vent following sporting events. Shortly thereafter, a network of basketball sites called Coast 2 Coast Hoops asked him to run their Syracuse site. That site was called Nation of Orange, and Mike quickly established it as a go-to for Syracuse fans.  After running Nation of Orange for several months, a position with the Syracuse site on the Scout network became available. After one year as the recruiting expert with Cuse Nation, he was named the publisher. Mike oversaw the transition from Scout to 247Sports, and ran the site on that network for years.  Presented with the opportunity to join one of the biggest names in the sports journalism industry, Sports Illustrated, Mike jumped at the chance. All Syracuse was started from scratch by Mike and the Fan Nation team. It has now become a staple for Orange fans of various sports.  Mike has broken news on recruiting, Syracuse basketball and football team information and has established himself as the top recruiting inside in the market. He has appeared on local radio shows, television broadcasts, national radio shows and much more. Mr. McAllister has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Accounting and Information Management from Roberts Wesleyan College.
