Only posting this for the comment on Syracuse. I might be dead before Syracuse is good again.
Of course, it's up to Syracuse to hold up its end of the bargain to make it worth UConn's time from a resume standpoint. The Orange have been mired in mediocrity, notching just one top-50 finish on KenPom since 2020, while UConn made the 2023 and 2024 NCAA Tournaments look like a peaceful stroll.
Maybe, just maybe, we'll be rewarded with a six-overtime game as an ode to 2009.
