I know some of the usuals will scoff at this, but we have a way to turn this ship around. I know this isn’t a typical Syracuse team, but it’s not your typical ACC either. It’s a really down year for the league.
Duke/FSU/Louisville are the clear top 3 teams in the conference, but they don’t instill fear into teams that typically high ranked ACC teams do.
After that KenPom predicts 7 teams to finish with 9 to 11 conference wins. We are one of those 7 teams. Right now our record against those teams is 2-3.
We dug ourselves a hole in the dome so now we really need to win at Notre Dame and VPI. I don’t think it’s an impossible task. Like the rest of the conference they are meh. We also need to start winning some games in the dome. 4 of our 7 losses are at home.
Now I am not saying we will finish fourth, but it’s a possibility based on the metrics and watching the other teams around the conference. I do think some guys are getting better. Mainly Girard and Quincy can get a lot better. If that happens it is not an impossible task.
