ACC Tournament Hopes

[Nicknack]

After losing against Miami, we're right back on the bubble. However, history has shown 7 wins get you in. I thing we get 4 more wins. I also think the number to get outside the acc 3 game sewer is 6 wins.

Keep an eye on NC State. Our game against them might end up being a tie breaker game. Thankfully they are trending downward.

4 more wins? That seems extremely optimistic for a team that barely beat BC, lost to Miami and got whacked by Duke in its last 3 games.

We have 2 pick em's keft.
2 moderate dogs (5 points)
2 big dogs (10 points or more)

0 more wins is statistically more orobable than 4 wins. (not that I expect either to happen)

Does it really matter if we make the ACCT? I guess adding another loss could be one more nail in Red’s coffin. I sure as hell don’t care about watching a noon game on Tuesday vs Cal

We've gone from:

1. Top 4 tourney seed (it cannot get any worse next year)
2. Top 8 tourney seed (it cannot get any worse next year)
3. Mentioned on bubble list for tourney (it cannot get any worse next year)
4. Let's be mentioned on the bubble (it cannot get any worse next year)
5. AccT bubble (it cannot get any worse next year)

I truly wonder how much further this program will fall.

The progression is mind blowing

Two recruits are on Slam High School. Stay the course!

They are better than us.

I blame Boeheim for the start of our demise...but I will say this...if any of his players played defense like these guys he would have yanked them in a nano second with an eye bulging verbal a#s whooping on their way to the bench... instead of an Autry high five !

They are better than us.

Yeah, not sure what’s going on at NC state, but they have been losing a lot of semi close games.

SU by a few different stats is one of the three worst teams in the ACC. I think the wins against ND without Burton, Cal without Stoja & the 3OT game against BC make our record look a little better than it should.

Burton played when we beat them.

 

[Newhouser]

We will not earn our way in - IF we make the ACC tourney it will be due to teams below us barfing all over themselves.

 

[Fly Rodder]

Burton played when we beat them.

That’s right, the tale of two halves and a major comeback.

I don't hope for anything except that we reach the point where enough pain is enough and we can start the complete rebuild under a new coach and staff.

The first mistake Red made was thinking the zone was the problem. The zone was our identity. What is easier... scoring the 65 points necessary to beat a team scoring 60... or scoring the 90 points necessary to beat a team that scored 88?

What is our defensive identity now? I mean... other than being quite clearly incapable of doing it well. I do not care what anyone says... when our zone was clicking, we were good defensively and forced other teams to beat us. I'd rather have a top 5 zone defense than the 300th best M2M offense.
