The Syracuse Orange boast the best win in the country this year, a 95-91 road triumph over No. 1 Duke.
It’s hard to imagine anybody topping that bold print at the top of their resume even with Tre Jones and Cam Reddish missing for it. On Wednesday, SU can add to it with No. 18 Louisville at home then another bout with a healthy Duke (now No. 1 again).
That brutal schedule could facilitate the Orange not worrying about their ability to qualify for March Madness. It could also cause them to crash and burn near the finish line with another 2-4 closing stretch.
