Syracuse almost lost to a D2 team tonight

[Huskyforlife]

They were down at half. Everyone point and laugh.

 

[Palatine]

LaMoyne?

 

[WhereistheDove?]

I’m sure Boeheim will take this performance well and definitely not dump on his team to the media.

 

[Bobol]

No team I want UConn to beat more than the University of Syracuse.

 

[LIuconn]

They lose one of these games every4-5 years

 

[Northbound]

IndIana U of PA i think.

 

[Mr. French]

LaMoyne?

My guy was on that team, greatest thing I’ve ever seen (not really but hating them is fun).

Cuse is constantly embarrassing themselves.

The SyracuseFan board is in a spinzone tornado with this one lol. They will be lucky to win more than 10 games this year. I hope Jimmy B never retires

Does UConn not do exhibition games anymore?

It's either secret scrimmages or exhibition games, I think.

Apparently playing about even with a D2 team is showing a lot of promise for them

Not anymore, we replaced them with the secret scrimmages against D1 teams

Yeah, I did a little digging in the meantime. Turns out the rules were established in 2005, and a team is allowed any combination of secret scrimmages and exhibition games up to two games. I was surprised to hear that this has been the case for 17 years, as I first heard of secret scrimmages last year.

After they open the ACC 1-4 he will announce his retirement. Calling it now

That’s because they were a secret

SU survives awful 1st half, beats Southern Connecticut State

The Orange overcomes a halftime deficit and pulls away in the second half.

will never forget gleefully watching them struggle against SCSU a few years ago

Syracuse: football school.

 

[SoFla Steve]

Then there is last year's 25 pt. loss to Colgate.

As one Cuse poster stated: Syracuse was a football school. Then Boeheim made them a basketball school. Now Boeheim is making them a football school again.

It has come to pass.

 

[FlippinCrazy!]

I only watched their highlights, but geez I don’t think they’ve ever heard of boxing out before. I get it’s the zone but still… And their so called savior center jesse Edwards looked slow and soft. We would have an absolute field day with them in the post and on the boards.

 

[Vancat]

Yeah, I did a little digging in the meantime.

Bad vibes in this thread.

Bad vibes in this thread.

Disagree schadenfreude toward Syracuse or Boston College is always a good thing.

Still, if it troubles you:

 

[MDHuskFan]

They have a whole 2k thread post about the BY, including this post. Funny that they were also in there making fun of Bouk’s MVA related incident.

Irony
