[akaukswoosh]

This is pretty good for Mark Story.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Im going Cougars. Who you got

 

[hotelblue]

i think my ff pick may be going home. almost tip and gut says the ‘cuse.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Those were some badly missed shots lol

 

[hotelblue]

syracuse jittery as heck.

 

[Rupp'sRunt]

Johnny Juzang. Thats all you have to say.

 

[rick64]

Hopefully Houston sends whiny @$$ Boeheim home early.

 

[hotelblue]

Those were some badly missed shots lol

three bricks, an air ball and a made layup since you typed that. so there’s improvement.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Hopefully we can get an overtime out of this game to take us up to the Miocic fight.

 

[hotelblue]

if you count air balls there have been already 7 bricks in this game. not shooting of the rim hard kind of bricks, but the kind that hit the backboard and the side of the rim. it’s got to pick up lol.

 

[hotelblue]

i hope boeheim’s nose had its shots.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Syracuse has more airballs than balls that have hit the rim and theyve had like 8 shots so far

i think 4 air balls. my gut said syracuse. guess i shouldn’t have had dave’s hot chicken.

 

[Crawfords Corner]

Houston players have grown men bodies. UK players almost every single one of them was built like stick men .

 

[tls]

Houston with a week to prepare. Looks like they put it to good use. This game is over before it started.

 

[JerseyCat84_rivals57050]

Houston attacking the zone perfectly. Must be nice to have a game plan.

syracuse is weird. you just never know with them. a double digit lead in this type of game is a big deal though.

 

[hotelblue]

syracuse is the like knuckleballer in baseball or the option in football. it’s its own weird thing.

Good response after missing absolutely everything. Counterpoint though, Houston was making absolutely everything, you know that wouldn’t hold forever.

Do you remember Scoop Jardine who played for SU? Lol

yep. wasn’t that long ago. well i guess it was.

 

[TortElvisII]

This game went from a snoozer to interesting quickly.

 

[hotelblue]

syracuse guy just missed a wide open cutter for a layup in transition. if you like bball you just puked in your mouth a little.

Saw that too, oof.

 

[hotelblue]

houston is playing the zone great vacating, drawing, occupying, kicking. but the length is still bothering the hell out of them.

Glad things have tightened up, was looking bleak there for a bit.

 

[Lempface]

Edwards has really changed things on the inside. Good defense and a vacuum on the boards recently.

 

[hotelblue]

the help defense inside has been excellent for syracuse. houston going to need more 3’s.

 

[Lempface]

Frustrating, miss a travel get a three then the weakest offensive foul on a made shot. D:

 

[nerdcat_rivals308595]

I feel like I’m watching UK play UK.

 

[hotelblue]

I feel like I’m watching UK play UK.

houston plays in low scoring games and syracuse is limited. it all adds up lol.

He looked right at him and just never pulled the trigger, that was an easy 2.

 

[Montana81]

Boeheim was a perennial tourney underachiever for a long time but Syracuse has now outplayed their seed 4 of the last 6 tournaments.

 

[hotelblue]

He looked right at him and just never pulled the trigger, that was an easy 2.

you knew they wouldn’t score after that and i think they turned it over 5 seconds later.

 

[hotelblue]

it’s 30-20. there’s been a 10-0 run and a 12-0 run. that’s weird as heck.

 

[Born and Raised Big Blue]

Syracuse playing terrible.

 

[Lempface]

Syracuse playing terrible.

Bad time to go ice cold.

 

[SmedMoley]

Refs gotta have money on Syracuse.

Seriously? I think it’s heavily in UH favor so far.
