Went over to SyracuseFan after the game. The meltdown wasn't as bad as I had hoped for. It seems that the majority of their fans finally have come to the conclusion that they aren't very good and haven't been for the last 7 or so years. Most had denied (or ignored) the glacially slow, but inexorable decline of their once proud program, but not anymore.

 

[UCTitleTown]

Cuse sucks.

 

[RichCTBB]

Cuse sucks.

I love that they’re sucking in the ACC

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Nunge on Xavier is going to eat us alive.

 

[UConnSwag11]

But it doesn't matter bc they get football money. And don't forget that whoever plays Cuse, It'S TheIR SuPERboWl"

Proper place for this for sure.

Again, money is a means to the end of winning games. If money doesn’t help you win games, why in the world would anyone care?

Their fans say that they are glad they are in the Dixie conference because it pays handsomely (true) and the current Big East sucks (not true).

They try to rekindle some Big East rivalry games and lose them both in one week and now have to crawl back to those Southern games that the pretend they get excited for. Oh and their football program sucks.

The whole thing is delicious, but at least they get to cling to that money which seems to be doing wonders for them.

We were dying for an ACC invite seems to me.

I know a lot of Cuse fans in that area and they don’t give UConn the respect of being their rival. They still believe GTown is their rival.

UConn surpassed them about 20 years ago, Georgetown is more their speed. They will always have the Melo year (which UConn owned them in) the 6 ot game, and the undefeated t-shirts.

 

[McLovin]

Don’t worry, they got all that acc money to fall back on.

 

[OUTATIME]

Please don't ever retire.

True, but that was then. I don’t think I’d like to trade spots with them now.

When things were falling apart and it was panic time yes. But Syracuse tried to leave the Big East back when Boston College did - back when everything was intact.

I’m perfectly happy being in the Big East.

Our football program would.

 

[The Viking]

Our football program would.

Syracuse is a basketball school that is in a Southern conference because of college football money
They will never win a national championship in football and their team currently sucks. And their basketball program suffers for it.
And a lot of their fans try to put up a front that they love where they are at and they constantly look down their noses at the Big East.

That’s why I’m enjoying their misery.

My grandson will be going to Cuse next year and my son lives quite close. That said, I don’t mind them losing, but trashing them for going to the ACC when UConn was dying to go is sorta funny. That was our best hoops rivalry. Personally, I don’t pay much attention to them. I want UConn to succeed and if we play them, beat the snot out of them.

You really think Sanogo is going to make it easy for him?

I’m speaking from a basketball-centric perspective. I’m exciting to see what Jim Mora can do, but football lost me with Bobby red pants.

Didn’t realize this but the pregame show said they hadn’t been ranked in 5 years…..did not realize it’s been that long.
Just watching them you can see they don’t have the bodies to play that zone the way they do when it’s been effective.
