After dispatching the highly-ranked Georgetown Hoyas and the hated Connecticut Huskies, the Syracuse Orange retained their rightful place as the No. 2 team in all the land.

In the AP Poll, the Orange remain No. 2 once again, receiving the same two No. 1 votes as usual. Three voters put the Orange at No. 3 despite being 25-1, and they would be Cormac Gordon Jason Franchuk and Jon Wilner, all of whom put the Missouri Tigers at No. 2.

In the Coaches Poll, the Orange remained No. 2 behind unanimous choice Kentucky. A quick look at the math shows that SU was the unanimous No. 2 amongst voters, which is nice. They're followed by Missouri, Duke and Kansas. Georgetown moved up to No. 9, Marquette to No. 13, Louisville is No. 18 and Notre Dame is No. 25.

The Orange are yet again No. 1 in the RPI and have the No. 14 toughest SOS in the nation. They're followed by Duke, Kentucky, Michigan State and Kansas.

In the Massey Ratings, Syracuse Is No. 2 behind Kentucky while Sagarin remains dubious, putting the Orange at No. 3 behind Kentucky and Ohio State.

Syracuse is No. 1 in the Colley Matrix, whatever that does for you.

The Orange remain the No. 1 seed in the East in SB Nation's Bracketology and and the No. 1 seed overall in Lunardi's brackets.
