Alright, let’s talk about Syracuse basketball and the NCAA tournament. First off, I started digging into their history.
Syracuse’s History
I found out that Syracuse is part of the NCAA Division I and they’re in the Atlantic Coast Conference. This was the case until 2013, from what I gathered. It seems like they’ve been around the block a few times, you know?
Recent Performance
Next, I looked into what they’ve been up to recently. It appears they’re trying to end a three-year dry spell of not making it to the NCAA tournament. They’ve got some older players mixed with some fresh faces, so it’s an interesting dynamic. I watched some of their recent games, honestly, they looked a bit rough around the edges, but you can see the potential. They lost against some teams they should have beaten, but hey, that’s sports, right?
Current Season
So, for this 2023-24 season, I followed their games and news pretty closely. There’s this show, “Syracuse Sports presented by Crouse Health,” that I started watching. It’s pretty good for keeping up with the team. They give some decent insights, and it’s fun to hear their takes on the games. I also keep an eye on articles and updates from various sports sites. It’s a bit of a mixed bag, but it keeps me in the loop. They played against UNC recently and it was a blowout. Tough scene.
Tournament Chances
Now, about their chances for the tournament, I saw a piece by Connor Stalker from early February discussing this. It basically said that Syracuse has a lot of work to do to get into the tournament. They were on a two-year absence, and it looks like it might be extended. Honestly, they’ve been stumbling a lot and not really dominating any games.
My Tracking Method
- Watch Games: I tried to watch as many games as I could. Live is best, but sometimes I caught replays.
- Follow News: I kept up with news from “Syracuse Sports” and a few other places online.
- Read Analyses: Articles discussing their performance and chances helped me understand the bigger picture.
- Take Notes: I jotted down notes during games and after reading stuff. Nothing fancy, just quick thoughts and scores.
- Repeat: Did this for each game, and yeah, it was a lot of back and forth.
Conclusion
In the end, it’s been a rollercoaster. They’ve had some okay moments, but overall, it looks like they won’t make it to the tournament this year. But hey, I’m no expert. Just a guy who likes to follow the team and share my thoughts. They’ve got potential, but they need to tighten things up. Maybe next year will be their year. Who knows? I definitely think they should fire their coach though. Autry is not cutting it.
