Wow. I guess Boeheim still has it in him to get the most out of his players. I'm only shocked because this isn't one of Boeheim's better teams fromyears past, but these guys are playing with no pressure, should have been left out of this tournament, and playing with house money. This is a team nobody wants to play. They matchup well versus UNC btw if that is who they play. I thought that this was the end today, but again, never bet against a Boeheim team.
I disagree, UNC is 2-0 against them and our bigs can score off that zone. If Cuse can limit turnovers they have a shot.

Advice for Syracuse next opponent: Don't get ahead too far.

It's an interesting take considering how bad UVA looked as well.
It's shameful that a #10 seed like Syracuse is in the final four. A black eye for NCAA basketball.

Yes but it shows how good our conference is that a team that finished 9th is this good. ACC was tough this year.

Funny, no one said that in 2011 when UConn was 9th in the BE and still ended up a 3 seed.

Beating a team 3 times is a tough task. I think those games were pretty close if I'm not mistaken. I still like 'Cuse on the 3rd try.

Disagree BIG time. This is great. I do think it shows that seeding is off a little but Im happy they made the Tournament. People forget they were close to not making it.

That was shameful.

It was embarrassing to lose to that shit team.

7 NBA players vs. 0 and they whoop your ass.

I'd rather have been UNI than than that 06 UConn team.

that was shameful. Those guys were like this UVA team.

100% pure losers.

The post game show just said Syracuse is the 4th double digit seed to get to the Final Four.
Yeah I heard that. Then why the hell did they say they were the 1st when they won. Weird. I think they messed up.

This I agree with. Thats why if UNC wins they do need to watch out.

First #10 seed.

George Mason and VCU were both 11 seeds.

I don't recall who the first one was.
