Official Syracuse Unintended Hilarity Thread

[Hans Sprungfeld]

However 3>1

Well done.

I was flipping channels and stopped on Cuse game because nothing else was on. I don't really care how Syracuse does anymore and it seems by that crowd that neither do their fans. The place was quiet as can be and had more empty seats than full ones.

Not to try and defend Cuse, but a ton of fans were watching the NCAA soccer championship on a big screen away from the court. As it went to PKs, most of them missed the entire basketball game.

Congrats to Cuse on winning the Men's Soccer National Championship. No small task to get quality soccer players to play there. Props where props are due.

I have nothing against their soccer program. Would be even better that as their basketball program becomes irrelevant that program stands out.

Syracuse beats Monmouth . . . and drops 6 places in the NET.

Fans are never a problem for them. They might be morons who have a way higher opinion of who they are as a basketball school but they always come out.

Makes a stronger point when you put in Syracuse's actual NET ranking.........165. ACC now has 5 teams over 150 in the NET rankings. ND-161, BC - 245, FSU - 280, and Louisville - 360

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Only up 5 with 12 to go

Pathetic

I think you're looking at this wrong.

This is in many ways similar to when we played Alabama at the PK.

Two teams of relatively equal stature in a game that was close well into the second half when the superior team was able to take over and win by 15.

In many ways Cuse fans can claim Monmouth is their Alabama.

Now thats a true statement. The times ive sat in sat in XL last few years with 5 to 7 K ( and ive been there for a 3.5 a couple years ago) never happen in carrier when they suck (and they always do) . A horrible cuse crowd is 13.k

But hey we have a bunch of Pats fans buying tix now, We are best fans in country .

2 > 1

 

[Fairfield_1st]

2 > 1

3>1 if you want to include 1948 (pre-NCAA).

Well coached team

That would force me to recognize their Helms Trophies

 

[CL82]

That would force me to recognize their Helms Trophies

Would it though?

 

[Rocktheworld]

Just to be clear, not sure anyone here really expected Syracuse to lose to KenPom #327 Monmouth. Does not change that they’re bad and we can laugh at them for it.

Yeah for me it’s a “hmm wonder if I should fade Syracuse from here on out”

You missed a ton of kwan not fading the from day one.

Cuse played Pitt at home..had a nice comeback, and still lost 84 to 82. The gift that keeps on giving...Jimmy B. RIP Cuse.

I turned it on for a couple of minutes when they were down 10ish in the second half. The place looked like and sounded like a morgue.

 

[Jimdish255]

Both teams and the officials were horrible. As far as Cuse is concerned the thrill is gone. And it ain't coming back.

This game made me nostalgic for the old Big East. It would be fun to be in a league this year with old rivals Syracuse who sucks and Pitt who still chokes.

Attendance was listed as 15,400, but it sure didn't look like it. I know the place huge, but still . . .

Thats based on sold tickets. There was maybe 10-11 in there. Before we laugh, announced attendence is usually done that way by us too, there have been announced 9k games at XL that were closer to 5.

It looked like the same amount of fans when they had their last home game

 

[UConnSwag11]

Half their board still wonders why they’re not at at the same level as us and the other half says they’ll be able to turn it around quickly like us.

They’re not sure why players don’t want to go play there
