Alright, let’s talk about this one.

We didn’t expect. No one did. If you say you did, you are lying.

Game Preview: Reggie Upshaw Jr. may actually get a statue on the Middle Tennessee campus in the next few years.

Upsahw Jr. led the Blue Raiders with 21 points and shot 50 percent from three-point range to lead his squad to an improbable and historic victory over No. 2 Michigan State on Friday. But wait there’s more. The junior also added four rebounds, four assists and three blocks in the victory.

That’s one heck of a stat line.

Now, to odds of Upshaw Jr. doing that again on Sunday are slim. But let’s be honest, they were pretty slim on Friday too. And if Middle Tennessee can find some holes in the Orange zone, anything can happen.

Still, history is certainly on Syracuse’s side.

The Orange have reached the Sweet 16 on 21 different occasions, although they haven’t been there since 2013. Keep an eye on forward Michael Gbinije who leads the squad with 17.8 points per game on 47.7 percent shooting.
