The Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team is trending in the right direction toward an NCAA Tournament bid. But you know what would help them trend even better? A win over the top-seed Virginia Cavaliers in the ACC Tournament. Things didn’t go too well for Syracuse the last time out vs. UVA (an 81-58 loss), and both teams look improved since that point in time. Still, we’re certainly hoping results improve here in Greensboro.
You can read the bubble check-in below, though it’s also worth noting that Duke’s season is reportedly over after a positive COVID test. The fact that it was revealed today could also create some concerns for Louisville. Teams need a week of positive tests prior to the NCAA Tournament in order to make the field.
