Syracuse does the Unthinkable
The Syracuse Orange are headed to the Final Four for the first time since 2013. A lot of people thought they should of been left out of the tournament, as did I. But they weren't and they got a 10 seed. You would think they would win maybe just their first game and then lose there second game to Michigan State. Michigan State ended up being upset by Middle Tennessee State in the opening round. So, Syracuse got another free pass. The following round you would of thought they would be playing Utah, but Gonzaga ended up upsetting the Utes. Despite Syracuse being down late in the game against the Zags, they somehow pulled it off. Syracuse's next game was against the 1 seed Virginia Cavaliers, and you thought there was no way the Orange win this one. It looked that way when Syracuse was down 16 in the 2nd half, but somehow they came all the way back and won. Now they are the first 10 seed to advance to the Final Four. Will their luck run out against North Carolina, or will they have a couple more tricks up their sleeve. We will have to wait until Saturday to find out.

Certainly a surprise the Orange have made it to the final four. If you would've told me a few weeks ago that a team Pitt beat 3 times this year would be in the final four I might have laughed you out of a room. I'm impressed by the orange's run but I have a feeling their luck will run out against the Top seeded Tar Heels
