Syracuse

Indiana apparently doesn't know how to play against Cuse's zone.

Hello--WTF are you doing? They are in a zone. Attack accordingly.

Indiana is spazzing out against the zone for sure.

 

[BugsyCT]

I must confess - back in '87 I was rooting hard for Cuse vs IU in the title game. They were Big East, and it was a much much MUCH different time.

Now with the fallout of conference realignment, but more importantly, the realization over the years of what a collection of colossal @sscracks the majority of their fans are, nothing would be better than to see them get stomped to the curb tonight.

Hoping for the best - an IU win.

 

[Jimdish255]

It doesn't look good for IU. I was afraid this might happen but at least it's 2 teams I normally root against anyway. Given the circumstances I'd love to see Cuse drop this one though.

 

[ASweet3781]

Predictable.

 

[HuskyJJ]

This is some ugly basketball

 

[BugsyCT]

Wow, IU looks lost against that zone.

 

[champs99and04]

It seems like Pitino and Calhoun are the only coaches in the country who know how to crack that zone.

The fk. It's like Crean didn't coach in the Big East.

 

[Mots010]

It seems like Pitino and Calhoun are the only coaches in the country who know how to crack that zone.

And the last 10 years of tournament losses.

 

[aceboon]

IU looks completely lost right now

 

[Northbound]

How does IU look so confused, christ, Crean saw that zone ever year when he was at Marquette he's got to have some clue how to attack it.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Someone tell Tom Crean that Syracuse might throw a 2-3 zone at them.

 

[61cygni]

Turnover city.

 

[HuskyJJ]

Wow this is pitiful. IU should be embarrassed

 

[whaler11]

Well I couldn't predict who would win, but I could predict this was going to be ugly. Yikes.

 

[BugsyCT]

Well, this is going super. IU looks like a 16-seed against Cuse's zone.

 

[whaler11]

Don't go Forte yet. Plenty of time.

 

[Gurleyman]

I'm not sure that Syracuse has even run a play yet. They just take turns forcing up shots. With any luck, they'll shoot themselves into a. Drought.

But this could be the best zone team Boeheim has ever had, with the length at every position. Still amazed our team o midgets got it done.

 

[Kurt]

For some reason I thought IU was more athletic than they seem to be.

 

[Gurleyman]

That's the Oladipo factor. They are somewhat pedestrian otherwise.

 

[HuskyJJ]

lmao at that "Block" replay they just showed. NO foul!

 

[bobbygt]

How was that not a foul on Zeller?
