Syracuse pounds Bucknell

By: John Kucko

Updated: December 20, 2011

SYRACUSE, N.Y. - Kris Joseph had 17 points, Scoop Jardine added 14 as No. 1 ranked Syracuse eased past Bucknell 80-61 on Tuesday night.

The Orange (12-0), who retained the No. 1 ranking for the second straight week after an 88-72 road win over North Carolina State on Saturday, won their 30th straight nonconference home game.

It was only the second time Bucknell (7-5) has played the No. 1 team in the nation. The Bison lost to Duke, 84-50, on Jan. 2, 2006.

Bucknell entered the game 1-8 against Syracuse, but that lone win, a 74-69 triumph over the 17th-ranked Orange, came in the Bison's last visit to the Carrier Dome in November 2005.
