Six games left plus the ACC Tournament. One game at a time, but it would be nice if we can get to 20 wins somehow and pick up some Quad 1/2 wins along the way. Some good positives from this win. Nice to see Chris Bell rebounding and playing scrappy defense. I do like Benny and am happy when he does well. Joe had a great game. If Judah can stay another year and develop his outside shot, he will be tremendous. He can really take it to the hoop. Awesome turnaround on the rebounding in the 2nd half.

Great analysis, Mike. Really thoughtful and totally agree about Chris, Benny, the team's defense and boards in the second half, etc. I feel like if somehow SU could go 3-1 over the next four and be at 18-11 with two games left versus GT/WF, maybe SU could start to creep into the Big Dance convo. But I know that's a big if.

Their computer numbers are just so bad, I don’t see how they can get in with anymore regular season losses (exception obviously being AQ). Just based on a typical at large profile, they probably need to win out AND make the ACC final to have a good chance. Upside is they’ve improved a ton since the awful start, and it’s not impossible (like it once seemed). They just left themselves so much work in the second half.
