The Syracuse Orange came into the 2016 NCAA Tournament as a relative longshot to get this far, let alone win the whole damn thing. The Dayton Flyers opened as a slight favorite over SU in the first round (oops) and the Orange were looking at 150-1 odds at winning the National Title.
Now that the dust has settled and the Orange find themselves in the Sweet Sixteen, those odds have improved, even if they're still one of the longshots.
