The Syracuse Orange women’s basketball team successfully sped past South Dakota State over the weekend, and their reward is a matchup with the top-seeded Connecticut Huskies in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. You’re pretty familiar with UConn and their typical brand of postseason bludgeoning. Obviously we hope we can avoid the expected outcome this time around.
Before this game gets going at 9 p.m. ET on ESPN, we predict whether Syracuse can find a way to advance to the Sweet 16.
