New York, NY (My Sportsbook) - Syracuse gave coach Jim Boeheim his 900th victory on Monday. No. 901 will have to wait.

C.J. Fair scored 25 for Syracuse (10-1), which gave Boeheim his milestone win on Monday in a 72-68 victory over Detroit at the Carrier Dome. The Orange nearly blew a 20-point lead in the second half five days ago, and on Saturday couldn't recover from their first second-half deficit of the season.
