Message: [QUOTE="FloridaCuse, post: 5066425, member: 8912"] Clearly Stevens thinks that Syracuse is only the 6th best team right now, as states openly when he ranks them in his USA Lacrosse Top 20. I assume his bracketology, as is yours, is a prediction of what the committee would do right now, based soley on the data. But as to your "eye test" of Syracuse, would it be different if Syracuse had won those 3 OT games and would be 14-1 instead of 11-4? Is the team on an "eye test" basis really that different if Michael Leo hadn't just barely hit the goal mouth in OT in the Maryland game, if Christian Mule's open net long shot in OT of the Army game had gone in instead of missing, and if Syracuse would have scored a goal in one of the 2 OTs vs Cornell (or the official hadn't thrown Pat March out of the game)? Really that different? I bet if all 3 had happened you'd view Syracuse differently and probably had them at least as #2 on an "eye test" basis. [/QUOTE]
