These lower seeds with no history of consequence in the Tourney until now are celebrating like they had won the National Title...
We should consider ourselves fortunate that Syracuse in the Sweet 16 is like a birth right.
As painful as that sounds, I found myself being happy we made it to the sweet 16 and just coming to terms for us not going any further this year. Would love to be wrong and have that trend change for a 2nd year straight.This is true and it is always a struggle to figure out where we should stand on this. Getting there is a major accomplishment, but at the same time Elite programs don't hang Sweet 16 banners and us losing in the Sweet 16 is about as solid of a bet as the sun coming up in the morning.
