A loss at home to Louisville is worse than any loss we have this year (especially considering ours were all on the road) so for those negative nellies that are still down after UNLV, here's the team and coach that people are calling the likely choice to win in the dance dropping one at home to a team that may not dance at all.

I too have been thinking of Syracuse as the #1 team in the nation.

Hmmm. kind of shoots the "I told you so" thread to pieces, doesn't it?

Yah! and to Louisville of all people. Lousyville have laid some real stinkers this year and now Patino is trying to hype this and just a couple of other decent wins into a case for the Big Show. I know Patino always peeks his team at the end of the year but they just aren't that good this year. If Louisville gets in at the expense of a more deserving MWC team I'll really be ticked.

Go Cougs!

Louisville's record coming into today: 15-9 (6-5), with an RPI of 48.

And you gotta love that home loss to Western Carolina (15-8, RPI of 130).

15-9, 7-5. It would be like BYU losing to CSU at home. Oh yeah, we play them next, on the road...

Come March I still Syracuse making a deep run. They are still a great team whose leading scorer is banged up and shot 25% from the field. They only lost by a couple.
