I expect the Orange to be out of the top ten by March and unlikely to advance to the 2nd weekend of the tournament.

Who are the 10 teams that are going to supercede the Orange by March 1st? There is a difference between having a critical analysis which points out areas that are percived as weaknesses and having a hyper critical viewpoint that is chicken little like and projecting negative outcomes which although remotely possible are highly unlikely. Every team in the Nation has flaws/ weaknesses of sorts and the difference between the top teams and the others is the fact that they develop ways to mimimize the impact of them or work to correct them over the course of the season. Syracuse, while having some shortcomings has some assets which many other teams simply do not have. Experienced upperclassmen, size, speed, a defense which wreaks havoc on other teams, a hall of fame coach, depth and superior conditioning, just to mention a few.
      To paint such a negative picture of the team as they sit at #1 in both polls is simply WRONG.  I'm going to save your post for future use since I think it will be a gift that keeps on giving well into the future.
