Orange - 65
Red - 61

Harrison 4-21, 14 points, 8 boards
Jordan 8 turnovers, 10 points, 7 boards, 1 assist
Obekpa 3 points, 6 rebounds, 5 fouls and 2 blocks
Stewart 4-8 from 3, 4 fouls
Greene 7-12, 19 points
Christian Jones 2 points, 1 rebound

Orange - 65 Red - 61 Harrison 4-21, 14 points, 8 boards Jordan 8 turnovers, 10 points, 7 boards, 1 assist Obekpa 3 points, 6 rebounds, 5 fouls and 2 blocks Stewart 4-8 from 3, 4 fouls Greene 7-12, 19 points Christian Jones 2 points, 1 rebound Branch 4 points, 3 assists, 3 turnovers Team shoots 10-24 from the line

Adds up to a minimum of 64 pts. (assuming Stewart hits no 2's).  Sure we can't squeeze another couple of points in there?

We lose... Prove me wrong boys

Early foul trouble for Obekpa
(Rakeem) Christmas comes early for Syracuse.

Cuse - 77
SJU - 70

St.John's will find a way. 

Would love to be wrong but.....outside shooting way to inconsistent to beat zone, Dom is not Jakar in the middle,  Sheed will look to drive into 3 trees, Chris not enough by himself inside = lose by double digits.

we can't beat the zone.

Gatta take what they give, and get on the boards. We got Dom.

Weren't the Zags taller then Cuse and overall better? I'm not saying we are going to win, but I will say we have a better shot to win.

Or:
5,000 fans v. 20,000 fans (maybe more)

City 76
Country 69

Is this a predictions thread, or a thread for hopes and dreams?
I find it hard to believe that all the posters predicting a win actually expect SJU to win.
I doubt Harrison even expects to win.

Is there a Debbie Downer emotion ? 

SJU-65
SU-63

I think this team can win each and every game including Duke. Not saying they will. We have a good team. We play good defense, rebound and if Harrison or Jordan get hot anything can happen.

That is the sad reality w this team. CO even had 4 fouls against Niagra. Unfortunately I think the lack of front court depth will bite us in the arse this year. Too bad Lavin couldn't get us 1 Eligible BE big last recruiting cycle.

Too bad for us, and too bad for him, because if we don't dance, he can blame getting fired on his own carelessness and laziness.

By the same rational if we do dance he deserves the credit,
