    NCAA Sweet Sixteen Games for Thurs March 28

    I took SD State in my brackets in this game and I'm in first place. I also had Kentucky in the F4 and will start to drop so...

    NIT Bracketology

    I voted No emotionally, but after giving it a few hours thought, I hope we get an invite and play. Even more so than the players getting experience, I think it would be good for Red to get some exp coaching in a 1 and done post season tournament. Can only help him. Better to get your first...

    5-7 Format Confirmed for 12-Team Playoff

    Excellent point. I don't know who picks the ACC #2. I guess it depends on how close the #2 and #3 teams are in the rankings prior to the ACCCG. If they are close and #2 loses, then #3 can jump them. If #2 is ranked 10 and #3 a fringe top 25 team, then #2 probably still gets it even with a...

    5-7 Format Confirmed for 12-Team Playoff

    If the ACC can stay together I think this would work for us.

    My Take

    Watching Cope and Maliq play this year, I commented last night that they seem to share a brain. Maliq knows where to go and Cope always finds him. Its been a while since we have seen 2 guys play so well together imo.

    ACC, PAC-12, and BIG alliance / conference realignment

    I would tell these 4 programs that if they don't change their vote now, there will never be an early out. We will hold you here til 2036 come hell or high water. Not even for $1B buyout, not 1 day early.

    Question of the Day. What does JB do next?

    I know it would never happen, but still think it would be cool to see what he could do, even if it is just a mid-major type of team. A 3 year stint would be pretty fun to watch.

    Question of the Day. What does JB do next?

    I think it would be interesting to see him take another head coaching job somewhere.

    Adrian Autry to Take Helm of Men's Basketball as Jim Boeheim's Storied Career Comes to End

    I really hope this works out. I've never been a fan of promoting within in the world of sports (with rare exception) and I'm afraid we are going to see what a bad Syracuse team really looks like in the next few years, and these last couple of years were not it.

    Do It All Paul Harris hired by Hartford

    Thanks for this post. Might as well pick up some tickets ($15 bucks each for front row and plenty of tickets always available) and wear my Cuse gear since the place is about 10 minutes from my home.

    NC State attendance

    My Dad is a perfect example of what it will take to get fans back. I told him, 4-0 and ranked #25...he said they need to win 10 games and go to big bowl games, a small shitty bowl every few years is not interesting to him.

    So what do you think of our team now?

    I'm glad you posted this, I had similar thoughts. I feel slightly less confident after the Purdue game and that is simply because you are only as good as your last game, or so they say. Maybe Purdue is a great team that is unlucky to be 1-2 or maybe they are a 1-2 team. Or maybe the first two...

    Appreciate it, but I already bought 5 tickets. It will be the first Cuse football game for 2 of my kids! One of them is even excited about it!

    I live 5 minutes from the Rent, so I better be there. Forgot to get in on the FineMess, but so many tickets available and cheap.

    USC and UCLA to the Big Ten

    I don't like this new landscape at all but if this is the new game then it would be absolutely criminal not to try to get oregon, Arizona, Washington, Kansas and maybe WV in the ACC tomorrow. (not to mention ND)

    Tickets for Cornell on Tuesday (Sec 212)

    Hi everyone. I have 5 tickets in Section 212, Row J for Tuesday night's game against Cornell. I don't think I am going to be able to attend so I am looking to unload them either in a full set of 5 (I'll give you a good deal on the 5th ticket) or in blocks of 2 or 3. I paid about $48 each...

    When will you stop consistently watching?

    I am a fan of 3 teams: New York Giants, Cuse Football and Cuse basketball. I've missed games here and there in the past, but generally I watch 90-95% of each of these teams games. Lately, they all lose a lot, but I still enjoy the sports and the competition. Wins and losses don't effect me...

    What I Expect From Syracuse Football: A Community Sound Off

    Dino’s H0t Seat Rankings

    I'd like to see him get a couple more years on an extension. Yeah, he has made some poor in game decisions and the play calling on offense could be better, but those things can be learned. I'm most impressed by how he changed the entire identity of this team and has been able to bring in some...

    Getting sick of the commercials.

    Commercials are the perfect time to catch up on our game thread as well as reddit's. I actually enjoy the building of tension and suspense of the commercial breaks, but that's just me. Yeah there are too many at the very end but I like the TV timeouts. Barely watch the ads but there is an...

    Dino's Presser after Clemson

    Babers on why he didn't go for it on 4th down in a 6-point game: "If we go for it on the -41 and we don't get it, what kind of question are you asking me then? My thought was if we get a good punt down and maybe our D gets another INT, then we're in good shape." I love Dino but is he saying it...

    Next year, NY6 or better

    I think our big NY6/playoff/Natty year could be three years out. Devito a senior, Trevor probably in the NFL by then down in Clemson and we get them at home. 3 more years of depth building and talent coming it. If Dino hangs around

    Wake game concerns me

    Sorry, I have not read the entire thread, but this game scares the heck out of me. If we win the next 2 then I'll feel like we really turned a corner. Otherwise, I can't shake the feeling that we are a 1 week wonder and we are gonna blow all this good will and finish 1-3. Please prove me wrong!

    Florida State Crowd Predictions

    I am thinking of coming up from CT but when I went to Dometix, I couldn't believe the prices. I mean, they are not going to break the bank or anything, but $50 for upper deck sidelines? Then an extra $6-7 fee per ticket. We are now talking $180 to take my wife and kid to a game that more...

    If we can't punch them in against WMU with our running backs, I fear for the rest of the season. The whole offense is Dungey and a good D will limit him.

    Cuse still fine for next year. Final four good

    Sure, you want to get good players but he was one and done and he has revealed his selfish side which sometimes goes against the team philosophy. We've seen plenty of teams get better when the star leaves. Also, this gets Marek 20 more minutes a game. He is a true team first guy with so much...

    Bazley Decommits

    He never wore orange so screw him. Hope he fails, it wouldn't even be surprising. We will be fine. The program is never about 1 kid. The timing also shows he was not a team player at all or he would have done it earlier and not leave a team on the hook. His loss, not ours.

    What I hate most about being on the bubble

    Battle might get first round money and then never been seen or heard from again in the NBA, like almost all of our guys. If Oshae leaves, he will have to sit out a year before he plays for his next college team...although, I can see him leaving after NEXT year if he makes a typical Frosh to...
