    SU 74 vs Arizona 69: Sat Mar 23, 3:30 PM [NCAA 1st Rd]

    That video was ugly. 40-seconds of bricks. Hope they get that out of their system today and light it up tomorrow.

    I get it Marsh, really don't need smart ass comments from you.

    NIT Bracketology

    We pay a lot of money towards NIL. To me the kids and coaches have an obligation to play. Finish the season. My contributions will be decreasing next year.

    If this is true, as a donor to the basketball program and season ticket holder for over 40 years, I'm very disappointed. Not happy with the hiring of Red.

    Women's Lacrosse SU 15 at Virginia Tech 5: Sat Mar 9, 12 PM

    They do have a sweet video replay board for an outdoor facility. A feature that none of our teams that play outdoor have. The mens soccer team (National Champions a year ago) has a score board with screw in light bulbs.

    Il Limone The Cider Mill I'll add these if you want to avoid downtown. Recommend reservations for the Preserve, Cider Mill, Francesca's, Ale & Angus, & Lemon Grass.

    RIP Uga X

    We have 2 bulldogs (Gertrude & Bruno) who share a room. The walls of their room are decorated with framed photos of UGA & Blue (Butler). They also have Georgia & Butler collars, leashes, sweaters, and blankets. I honestly don't know where they get the money for all this crap. They sleep all...

    Does anyone know

    We also kicked their a$$ in soccer this year.:)

    UNC Campus - things to do/see?

    Sutton's Drug Store is a great place if you want a place to go with some nostalgia. There is usually a line out the door and we have never had the time to wait, but we were finally able to get in the day after the SU/UNC football game this past year. The burgers are great as well as the potato...

    Buffalo Bills 2023 Thread

    Pittsburgh must be consistently lucky. They have not had a losing season since 2003.

    Buffalo Bills 2023 Thread

    Trying to figure out how Pittsburgh is such a bad team. They finished 5-1 against the best division in football. Honest question.

    2024 Spring Game Get Together

    Alas, there is no replay board, and following the long winter season, I suspect several of the screw-in 100W bulbs will need to be replaced.

    Men's Soccer SU 3 vs Boston U 1: Thurs Nov 16, 6 PM [NCAA 1st Rd]

    Nice win!!!! We get Jeorgio back. I would have hated if his last play in a Syracuse uniform was as a red card.

    Men's Soccer SU 3 vs Boston U 1: Thurs Nov 16, 6 PM [NCAA 1st Rd]

    Keep the reports coming. I’m in Honolulu for the invitational and obviously can’t watch. Hopefully, will catch a replay later tonight.

    Justin Taylor - Virtual Tailgate Visit

    Nice little video. Hope he will be able to make it down for the Wake Forest tailgate. It will be good to chat with him about the Colgate win, and the games in Honolulu.

    Men's Soccer SU 1 vs North Carolina 3: Wed Nov 8, 6 PM [ACC Semis]

    Hopefully they will have a big crowd and Otto's Army will be present. We will be missing our first home basketball game in years to attend the soccer game. A few members of the Syracruz tailgate crew will be present. We will be sitting behind the SU bench.

    Men's Soccer SU 1 at Virginia 1 (PK 4-3): Sun Nov 5, 2 PM [ACC Qtrs]

    Yes NCAA is a lock. Today's win should give them a first round home game. A win against UNC may give them a first round bye.

    Men's Soccer SU 1 at Virginia 1 (PK 4-3): Sun Nov 5, 2 PM [ACC Qtrs]

    The offense is starting to figure it out. Hopefully I'll be freezing my &ss off on Wednesday night at the SU soccer stadium.

    Men's Soccer SU 1 at Virginia 1 (PK 4-3): Sun Nov 5, 2 PM [ACC Qtrs]

    UVA's two misses were not on net. I will say this. UVA's goalie played very well. He was an &ss after being warned, but he had talent.

    Men's Soccer SU 1 at Virginia 1 (PK 4-3): Sun Nov 5, 2 PM [ACC Qtrs]

    I was once a goalie. Goal tending often has very little to do with the end results of penalty kicks.

    Men's Soccer SU 1 at Virginia 1 (PK 4-3): Sun Nov 5, 2 PM [ACC Qtrs]

    Goal tending has been the difference in this game.

    Men's Soccer SU 1 at Virginia 1 (PK 4-3): Sun Nov 5, 2 PM [ACC Qtrs]

    The last 2-games shots have been on net. If SU keeps shooting on net, the ball will go in. There have been to many field goals up till the last 2-games. Offensively, SU is are looking much better. I have not been happy with the goal tending this year. I don't think I've seen an SU save and...

    Men's Soccer SU 5 vs NC State 0: Wed Nov 1, 6 PM [ACC 1st Rd]

    Shots on net tonight. Few if any field goals. Nice to see the ball go in the back of the net. Great win. On to Virginia!!!

    Men's Soccer SU 1 vs NC State 1: Sun Oct 22, 1 PM

    Unable to be at the game, but watched the last 10 minutes on my iPad. I’ve only missed one other home game this season, so missing today was tough being that it was senior day. SU struggles to put the ball on net. Plain & simple. It is a similar problem they have had in years past. Last year...

    I no longer understand what is and is not a penalty. That was a joke.

    Purdue Tailgate/Tix: September 16th @ 7:30 pm

    Okay , If you are looking at the map, we are set up in the upper left side of the IM lot. We are the third row and have the only orange canopies that are up.

    Purdue Tailgate/Tix: September 16th @ 7:30 pm

    This is the IM lot. Maps show 3 separate lots, but in reality it is one great big open grassy field. The “3-IM lots” are small gravel parking areas where students can park when the intramural soccer fields are being used. It is my understanding there are 3-entrances to the IM lot, which...

    Purdue Tailgate/Tix: September 16th @ 7:30 pm

    Not a problem. It would be very difficult for you to bring anything unless you are parking in the IM lot, which to my knowledge is sold out.

    Purdue Tailgate/Tix: September 16th @ 7:30 pm

    I might of taken you up on your offer, but I'd rather you make it to the tailgate and not have to worry about dropping stuff off, then driving to the CC lot, and walking/shuttling back. From my understanding, the CC lot is 1.2 miles from the stadium, and about 1.8 miles from the IM lot. I...

    Hi guys; We have about 75 people for the tailgate not including Enrique's family or Liam's (Enrique's brother) football team. The menu is pretty simple as everything is being transported from central NY in 4 vehicles. The menu is as follows: Menu: Regional Specialty in parenthesis Hoffman's...

    Men's Soccer SU 1 at Penn St 1: Fri Sept 1, 6 PM

    First game the defense has been challenged. 3 turnovers that could have been costly. I think we had more possession, but the turnovers gave them several opportunities that they could not cash in on.

    SyraCRUZ Tailgate - Important Information

    This is sad coming off a National Championship year. There are several local high schools with nicer scoreboards with video replay. I suspect a major expense would be that the press box would also have to be updated to get the full benefit from a video scoreboard, but I’m not sure. I would...

    SyraCRUZ Tailgate - Important Information

    As you can see in the photo, I was able to trim the hedge back the night before the game, so the bottom of the scoreboard could be seen by Coach Mac & the players from the field. I had to jump over a fence with a step ladder in tow to get in. Who knew they locked up the field at night.

    Spoke with him in April. I got the vibe that it was so he could be closer to home. He will make an immediate impact for Rutgers and hope he does well there.

    Men's Soccer 2023 Schedule

    Unless something has changed within the last week, Buster is fine. Spoke with him 2-weeks ago, he will be 100% to start the year. I thought Nate Edwards looked good. Quick & handled the ball well in traffic. In seasons past, I’ve watched SU control the play & tempo of games, only to lose...

    Men's Soccer 2023 Schedule

    Gotcha, I thought you meant that they did not start at Niagara. I don’t take much from who starts in these exhibitions. I’ve seen players play in past exhibitions, who then never see the field the remainder of the season. Several players who will get major minutes this year, did not even step...

    I believe Stephen Haase played for Niagara and was not only a starter, but was a team captain last year. He played in the second half yesterday. I anticipate he will see playing time off the bench this year.

    Yes, played second half. 2-3 shots that were not on goal if I remember correctly.

    Stay tuned. I know we will need people to bring ice, cases of water, hot dog rolls, etc. We are in the process of organizing that now and will have a better idea within the next 2 weeks. :) I do know I will need the e-mail address you would like the tickets & parking pass sent to. You can...
