I'm havin a hard time not rootin J/K

[Huskies4ever]

Cuse go Marq.

Is that wrong?

Cuse go Marq.

Not in the least. Carry on.

 

[tzznandrew]

It's wrong if you want to pick the winner of the game. Syracuse's zone looks way more active than it did in the BE. They just look like a different team.

 

[aceboon]

I'm starting to feel sick

 

[huskiesnyc]

You would think these coaches would watch tape of how UConn destroyed their zone. Come on MU

 

[bobbygt]

Cuse seems to be peaking right now. And really the only team left that I would pick against them is Louisville.

Cuse has their defense rolling right now.

this ain't the same zone, MU ate that zone up in the reg season too, other than the 2nd half against Lou this is a diff Syr team once the postseason started.

Not to take away from Syracuse's zone, because it is outstanding, but , these officials seem allergic to calling fouls on them.

 

[bobbygt]

Damn- that looked painful.

Hope he's ok.

 

[aceboon]

Gardener needs to get a touch every time down the floor

Yup- yet, they call some crappy bump foul right there.

You know what was funny? When Raftery said Boeheim is great at in-game adjustments.

Ah, no.

He plays an inferior defense and Marquette is presently cutting through it like a welding torch through butter. They're doing is using a fat guy who is throwing the ball AT the rim.

Syracuse played an incredible 50-minute stretch (Indiana game, start of the game today), but outside of that they have looked ordinary against non-Big Sky teams.

 

[Rico444]

Marquette is an awful jump shooting team.

 

[aceboon]

Buzz might have to get t'd up for Marq to get a foul call

Gardner got punched in the face. With the way they look at things now, it was a Flagrant 8.

 

[superjohn]

Marquette didn't get a call all half, Syracuse was constantly reaching in.

 

[Tenspro2002]

How did Marquette score 74 against the zone in their first meeting? They can't hit anything from the outside.

They made shots that game, they are getting plenty of open looks today just not hitting anything.

 

[upstater]

Marquette is playing 4 against 5. That backup guard off the bench is just taking space out there. He has guys flashing open in the zone and he just swings the ball back around the perimeter. Like playing with one hand tied behind the back.

What is it about this zone that makes players into morons?

 

[zls44]

Brutal, but effective for SU.

 

[Tenspro2002]

This game is over. 12 point deficit might as well be a hundred.

 

[superjohn]

The officiating has been horribly one sided.

Ive seen nothing from Marquette that makes me think they could benefit if it was even.

Marquette was bricking them against UConn until the last few minutes.

Things started off good for us. UK losing, Pitt, Notre Dame all losing. Looks like Cuse didn't get the memo. Figures the team we probably hate the most is waltzing to the Final Four and there's nothing we can do to stop them.

Maybe Florida can beat them. Louisville def can. That's our only hope at this point. It'll still be 3-2 in our favor if they win.
