That sent the second-seeded Cougars through to their first regional final in 37 years, earning a matchup with No. โ€œItโ€™s the best defense that that weโ€™ve seen this year and they deserved to win,โ€ coach Jim Boeheim said. Syracuse had shot at least 52% each time while making 29 3-pointers โ€” but there would be no repeat of that unexpected 2016 Final Four run thanks to Houston's defense.
