The Syracuse Orange men’s basketball team has done all it can to help its resume at this point. Losing to the Duke Blue Devils on Thursday didn’t hurt, but it probably didn’t help either. They’re 20-13... the same record they had last year at the end of the regular season, though with a weaker and more shallow bubble below them (as you’ll recall, last year’s team wasn’t chosen to make the field by many heading into Selection Sunday).
So the bracketology situation from here on out is unlikely to improve much, but it’s also unlikely to dip a ton either.
