While there are numerous college basketball tournaments taking place right now, the Big East seems to be where the intrigue is.

Ranked No. 3 in the nation and seeded No. 1 in the Big East championship tournament, the Syracuse Orange had a minor setback on their road to March Madness.

Syracuse lost yesterday in the quarterfinals of the conference tournament to the eight-seed Georgetown Hoyas, who won 91-84. They covered, as online sportsbooks had them as 6-point favorites.

The Orange suffered even more, as C/F Arinze Onuaku went down with what looked to be a right knee injury.

Syracuse head coach Jim Boeheim said that Onuaku has a strain and will have an MRI; he did not return to the game.

In the meantime, the Georgetown Hoyas will prep for Friday’s semifinal game against the Marquette Golden Eagles.

The Golden Eagles are 11-2 straight up and 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games overall.
