I ask because I don't want to do the work to look this up.  SU has failed to get into the Sweet 16 since the earth was created.  Ok, it was only back to 2004.  But just who has gotten there.  How good were the teams that beat SU or what teams that SU had beaten during the season got further?  Its like this.  Last year they lost to Marquette in the 2nd round.  Not considering the horrendous officals call, people have to remember Marquette beat SU during the season, they knew how to do it.  The year before lowly Butler beat Su but wait a minute that lowly team made it to the finals.  The year before UConn, Pitt and Vill advanced further but then they all beat SU during the season and the lost to Oklahoma was to a higher seed team.  2008 & 07 were NIT teams.  So you have to go back to 2006 and 2005 for the  real What loss since since 2003.  In 2004 they went to the S16 and lost.  UConn went further and SU spit with them and oh by the way Texas a higher ranked team that year lost to a #7 seed during the same round.   Yeah SU has had failures getting to the sweet 16, but then a lot of other teams have too and its not like those that do are vastly inferior to SU.
