Syracuse last night defeated St. Joseph's -- at home, and on a game-winning three-pointer with 5.3 seconds left.
Color me unimpressed. Any team that beats Siena and St. Josephs at home and by single digits on consecutive nights does not deserve to be ranked in the Top 25.
Might the 'Cuse beat Ohio State in the semis of the NIT Season Tip-Off? Yes. But that would be no big feat, given the Buckeyes' recent loss to Division II Findlay.
