Kris Joseph scored a career-high 29 points, hitting a go-ahead 3-pointer in the final minute of overtime, and No. 2 Syracuse beat 12th-ranked Georgetown 64-61 on Wednesday night to give coach Jim Boeheim his 880th career win. Boeheim took sole possession of third place all-time in Division I, one more than North Carolina's Dean Smith, but it wasn't easy against the Orange's rival. The game was tied at 55 after regulation, and Otto Porter scored the first four points of overtime for the Hoyas, swishing two free throws and hitting a baseline jumper to give Georgetown 61-59 lead with 2:19 left. Dion Waiters tied it with a pair of free throws for the Orange, and after Porter lost the ball out of bounds at the other end, Scoop Jardine fed Joseph in the left corner, and he buried his career-best sixth 3 of the game with 29 seconds left. No. 7 Kansas 68, No. 6 Baylor 54: Jeff Withey scored a career-high 25 points and Kansas went ahead to stay during a stretch without Thomas Robinson as the seventh-ranked Jayhawks had another convincing victory over sixth-ranked Baylor, winning. The Jayhawks, coming off a 74-71 loss at fourth-ranked Missouri on Saturday, grabbed a share of the Big 12 lead with the Tigers. No. 11 Michigan State 77, Penn State 57: Draymond Green had 23 points and 12 rebounds and made some timely shots to help No. 11 Michigan State pull away from Penn State in a win. The Spartans (19-5, 8-3 Big Ten) pulled within a game of conference-leading and third-ranked Ohio State, setting up a big game Saturday on the road against the Buckeyes. The last-place Nittany Lions (10-15, 2-10) have lost five straight and eight of nine. Boston College 64, No. 15 Florida State 60: Jordan Daniels scored a career-high 19 points, including four 3-pointers, to lead Boston College to a victory over No. 15 Florida State and snap the Atlantic Coast Conference-leading Seminoles' win streak at seven games. No. 19 Virginia 68, Wake Forest 44: Mike Scott made all nine of his shots and scored 19 points to lead No. 19 Virginia to a win over Wake Forest.
