Syracuse took care of business in non-conference play, as its only two losses came from ranked squads.
However, the Orange have struggled in ACC play, as both of their losses were by 20+ points.
Until they prove they can hang around with the ACC's best, it is hard to see the Orange moving up the rankings. They can prove us wrong this week, as wins over Boston College and at North Carolina could prove that this group is better than their current ranking.
