Score prediction thread for Syracuse

Syracuse likes to play up tempo. Unless Quentin goes completely out of character both teams should have a lot of possessions this game. UConn is the more efficient team. 98 67 UConn for an MOV of 31 points.
 
UCONN 94
Syracuse 62

The Orange want to run. They want to play with pace. They want to press and create a frantic pace. That plays right into UCONN's hands. I really can't see this being close at all unless UCONN completely loses their focus...

You will see Gabby, Napheesa and Katie Lou help bring the ball up the court to beat the Syracuse press. UConn knows what to do, and they will do it. 84-63

Like I said before...the ' cuse freshman doesn't go 7/14 on threes again (she normally shoots 28%). They have no inside game...and we do. 95-65 US!

ERIC: very interesting analysis. You know your stuff so would not be surprised to see things pan out this way. Sure hope so.

DC: I'll be dipped. Thought I was the only guy who looked at things in a manner that no one else on the Yard would agree with.
Gutsy call, but I get where you are coming from. Sure as hell hope you're wrong as I've always disliked Cuse basketball, all the way back to Boeheim's early days (though I've given it some grudging admiration for bottom line results vs methods).

MIKE: ADE missed that by as much as he misses the scores. Try "Moonshine Obliterates Vision." If you've ever been to the mountains, you'll know what I'm talking about.
 
Could be a very tough game. We need to break the press and limit threes. If things don't go our way, Cuse gets a lot of points. But we can score against them. UConn by 105-80.

Unfortunately UCONN is in their REM mode and the Orange Crush does a job on them.

Syracuse by a dozen. 92-80.

With a nickname of "Syracuse Orange," it isn't too much of leap to come up with the team color. Yup, Orange. What is a bit unusual though is that there are probably not a whole lot of colleges sporting just a single color?

Time for the second leg of the post season competition leading to the Boneyard Fearless Forecaster crown 2017.

Who are you picking to win this one? By what margin of victory? And, by what exact score? Note that the exact score is not being used as a tie-breakers any longer.Rather, it is an integral part of the competition.

'IF THERE ARE TIES IN THE POST SEASON, FULL POINTS WILL BE AWARDED to all those who tie within any given point level, from ten points on down.
