Message: [QUOTE="Fairfield Fan, post: 3909486, member: 6911"] Syracuse and the ACC are strange. The ACC is touted as such a great conference, but Syracuse is the #4 team, but was just 14-8 with a 9W- 7L record in the conference. They are a big team, with four of their top six players going 6'7", 6'2", 6'2", and 6'1". They have four seniors among their top six players. But no one has ever accused Coach Q of being a great bench coach. And let's not forget the bad blood between these two teams. Remember when Maya was so incensed at the trash talk from Syracuse players? She was aghast at all the garbage talk and told Coach Geno. Coach Geno responded, "So what do you want to do?" Maya said, "I want to beat them by 40." So Coach Geno kept Maya out there until they beat Syracuse by 40. Not a lot of class on that side. We should win, though not in a blowout. They stayed very close to Louisville. And it should be a strong test of our new, determined, post-Arkansas team and their ability to handle a big front line. [/QUOTE]
