C.J. Fair had 18 points and 10 rebounds, freshman Jerami Grant scored a season-high 14 points, and No. 9 Syracuse beat No. 25 Notre Dame, 63-47, to snap a two-game losing streak that had dropped the Orange three spots in the rankings.
Syracuse (19-3 overall, 7-2 Big East) was coming off consecutive road losses against Villanova and Pittsburgh and has only three conference losses in its past 32 Big East games.
The Orange stretched its home winning streak to a school-record 36 consecutive games, the longest active streak in NCAA Division I. Notre Dame (18-5, 6-4) had won three in a row.
