On Tuesday night in the Carrier Dome, Syracuse dropped its third-straight game, 68-54 to Iowa. The loss marks SU’s worst start to a season since 1970, a year in which dunking was briefly banned from the sport.
Against Iowa, Syracuse improved its previously poor rebounding but struggled to contain Iowa big man Luka Garza (23 points). SU’s leading scorer Elijah Hughes struggled, scoring 10 points on 13 field goal attempts.
