Sorry to disappoint you, Syracuse fans, but even though the Orange looked terrible in their last two games against Louisville and Pittsburgh, the overwhelming likelihood is that they are still going to make the NCAA Tournament.
Syracuse held No.25 Notre Dame to 27 first-half points and held on for an 81-66 victory over the Irish Thursday night in Syracuse. Syracuse is 14-8, 4-5 in the ACC, the Irish are 14-6, 5-3.
