One bad game

All last night was one bad game. Syracuse didnt look great yesterday either. Lets go atleast 1-1 this week.

Theres a difference between winning badly and losing badly

I agree, its only one game. We played five good games in a row and now we had a stinker. It shouldn't happen as much as it has with seniors but its happens. We turned a corner the last few games but we regressed a little last night, Wednesday is a huge game because 'Cuse is beatable this year and if we play like we did our first 3 BE games we can win. Hopefully this ND game serves as a wakeup call that they have to keep up the intensity for 40 mins in the BE or they will lose and lose badly.

And why would you be so quick to say that Syracuse is "beatable " this year wods... it would be a triumphant victory considering the intense mismatch we have going against their team

I have seen many of their games this year and they aren't as talented as past years. On some nights they can beat anyone in the country and on another like look very mediocre. It will be a tough game but we can win it if we play well is all I am saying. Almost everyone is "beatable" if they aren't on their game that night. SJU has a shot if we play like we did.

Syracuse is nowhere near as talented or as deep as they were last year. Still, they might play some lesser teams tight, but they are still winning.

The point isn't to win big. Just to win. And right now, they're perfect. If we do win, it would be our biggest win since Duke in 00.

This is a Sean Evans Dele Coker kinda game. Hit them, and hit them hard. They don't shoot well from the line.

because 'Cuse is beatable this year

I beg to differ as they are 16 - 0 on the year.  There is no evidence yet to support your argument.

manbearpig says it will be important to see how we respond on weds. i am not sure that we can beat cuse but thats why we play the games. hardy needs to shoot more if u ask me

Moose agrees with manbearpig

I think me saying "beatable" was taken the wrong way. What I really meant was that 'Cuse is not quite as talented as they have been in past years and can sometimes struggle against lesser teams (PC played them down to the wire and SH played them tough they have a combined BE record of 1-7). They are still very good and should beat us but we are better this year and we have as good a shot to beat them with a game at home that we have had in a long time. I wasn't saying 'Cuse has all these holes and we should win but I'm saying we are better this year and have a shot to beat them unlike in past years when they have smoked us. Our talent level this year is a close as it has been to theirs in years is all I am saying.

ND got killed tonight. Just one bad game.
