Syracuse Basketball: Orange Bubble Watch- 2/20
By Josh Peelman
Syracuse Basketball is on the bubble and this weekend’s win at Miami only meant more chaos. Continue to check back here for updates on the Orange’s NCAA standing until brackets are released on Sunday, March 11th at 6pm.
As promised, after every Syracuse basketball game we will update this Bubble Watch for you so you know where Syracuse stands. In this update we add a few teams and subtract a few teams from the list in which Syracuse should be concerned about.
Additions this week include newcomer Texas and Baylor. Teams removed from this list include Kansas State (for now) and Virginia Tech. Unfortunately for Syracuse, most of the teams in this list did not stumble and that just made the bubble even more chaotic for the Orange.
This week should create some clarity for the Orange as they take on a ranked North Carolina squad on Wednesday. Then later in the week Syracuse will travel to Cameron Indoor Stadium to visit highly ranked Duke on Saturday. Those two games alone will impact whether Syracuse probably makes the tournament or not. A win over even one of those would be huge if they can pair that with a win at Boston College the week after this one.
March is just a few short weeks away so the madness is just beginning. So without further ado let’s first look at the Orange and St. Bonaventure.
