UCONN v SU

someone have a good preseason write up of syracuse and then one on our team? I don't know much yet about their team, i'll be looking into it as well
 
i
24. Connecticut Huskies
The Huskies weren't exactly an explosive team offensively last season, and three of their top four scorers are no longer around. Rodney Purvis, who led UConn with 12.8 PPG, is back. But outside of Purvis, the Huskies have no proven scorers in the rotation. Kevin Ollie will have to find a few from his five-man recruiting class that RecruitingNation ranked ninth. Freshman point guard Alterique Gilbert and VCU transfer Terry Larrier could be among the newcomers to start, and preferably for UConn they'll bring a scoring punch to the lineup. -- Brown

i

25. Syracuse Orange
Tyler Roberson is a rebounding machine. Tyler Lydon, a 40 percent 3-point shooter on the offensive end, had 17 blocks in three games in Syracuse's Final Four run last March. Which is to say: Jim Boeheim's frontcourt will be just fine. The challenges for Boeheim will entirely center on the backcourt, where the departures of Michael Gbinije, Trevor Cooney and Malachi Richardson will force huge responsibilities -- both offensively and in that trademark 2-3 zone -- on freshman Tyus Battle, Nebraska transfer Andrew White and little-used rising sophomore Franklin Howard. -- Brennan
 
17. CONNECTICUT

The loss of Daniel Hamilton hurts because it represents the loss of a high-level college player who doesn't project as a first-round pick. Put another way, he didn't have to go. But he's gone. And that's a blow. But UConn still has a solid core of veterans in Rodney Purvis and Amida Brimah, an impactful transfer in Terry Larrier, and a top-10 recruiting class. So Kevin Ollie has a roster he can work with.

no cuse rankings

It's the beginning of October and still no sign of online ticket sales for this game ....
 
UConn club charged my credit card last week. I would bet the event gets put up on ticketmaster in a week or two.

I know it's early, but I love our advantage at the guard position, where games are usually won/lost.

I went on the MSG website to buy tickets for the Dec 5 UC v SU game but it isn't listed on the MSG schedule. Is this game still on? Has anyone else tried to buy tickets or am I having a senior moment?

My ticket request from UConn has been approved. They did not say when they would be sent out. I will sell them at face value when I get them, as I am likely not going. Keep in touch.

4? I am interested.
 
I don't trust vivid seats. 2 years ago the Iowa state game at MSG I bought 6 tickets which were confirmed only to find out the day before that they had resold them by mistake to someone else...
 
Ticket office just emailed me back saying they will send out an email blast in the coming weeks for the game.

Another update from the UConn website.

Did my part by buying four. Brought my girlfriend to her first UConn game last year at the garden and we ended up sitting in the row behind a UConn fan and MD fan who chirped at each other all game. The MD fan ended up spitting on the UConn fan, followed by the obligatory brawl. Good times. Hoping things are more exciting on the court than in the stands this year

Tickets are now available through the UConn site as well. Just got mine in section 120 row 5. A note on Syracuse tickets it says they allot them by Orange priority points so better to order through UConn and get your seats guaranteed.

Got tix in 104 for $55. For some reason UConn not allowing purchasing the $95 tix like Syracuse site.
