It seems at least eight writers (just three coaches) actually noticed Syracuse's big win yesterday at West Virginia. And in case you were wondering if SU is truly relevant again, the polls reflect that.
No, we're not ranked, yet, but we are in the "others receiving votes" category. After all we've been through since 2004, I'd say that's a victory around these parts. We'll take it.
Here are some fun tidbits to hold over your friends based on the newly-released polls:
1. Syracuse has more votes than Florida, Texas and Clemson, to name a few.
2. SU has as many votes in the AP poll as West Virginia and as many votes in the Coaches Poll as California.
3. If you go by others receiving votes, SU is tied with WVU as the HIGHEST RANKED BIG EAST TEAM. That says more about the Big East than Syracuse, but I'll take it.
A few more wins for the Orange, and they might even be upgraded to "Risky."
