[GoSU96]

Very limited playlist

How does that song pass Ivy League muster ?

I dunno. Not good game maagement at end (unsurprisingly) and got a little lucky.

Not gonna win it all without good game maagement.

But yes, luck broke our way today, which hasn't always been the case.

Duke killed themselves with the remedial turnovers where they couldn't make a basic pass and Mullen stole their lunch money all day. They even got some ACC shocker calls and still couldn't get out of their own way.

They shouldn't but the committee does like to have weird takes at times.

Army shouldn't get in but I would have zero surprise if there playing at SU next Sunday

As far as coach choices made they were not the worst. Only one I really question was the final time out, but even with that the main issue was Hiltz instantly turning it over instead of running or throwing it. Everything before that with clock management and making sure to limit transition was quality.

I’d really like not to see army.

 

[tbonezone]

i guess what find most frustrating is that they say 2016 was our last win ? Syracuse Lax where have you been ?

I think they que it up at the solo intro... "oh won't you fly high ...oh free bird...yeah"

It's bad ass

I DJed at one of my kids lax games this season & played basically the Chucks Playlist. The superintendent of the school sent a minion over to chastise me for playing Baba O'REILLY

Army SOS is 31. SU #3. and you're afraid of army ? if they draw Cuse they should be crapping their latrines.
cuz they don't even know what battle tested means.

Beginning of the 4th - Cornell just tied it at 14.

Princeton”s goal song is Freebird?

Princeton is a wagon

Yeah it’s three guitar crescendo

 

[JYCUSE12]

Cornell refs doing the screw job on Princeton instead of us. Something needs to change with officiating in college lax, it's terrible and the bias is obvious. They don't even try to hide it

Great great win. A few days ago, many of us were calling for Gait to be fired, worried we might be left out of the tournament all together. Now the Orange will be hosting a playoff game as ACC champs. Amazing head, heart and hustle all weekend.

Also big ups to Billy Dwan. He had a couple of tough weeks with turnovers and some head scratching defensive play. But he was fantastic this weekend all over the field, in transition, on groundballs and in coverage. If he plays like this all tournament this team will go far.

Obviously wanted the end to the game to go better, but hopefully the team learns from it going forward. All in all hard to be upset about being ACC champs! Go Orange!

 

[SUskibum]

IT WAS A WIN, man. Sour tastes aren't for wins. Going forward "Just win Baby"!

SWC75 would reply you always want two things out of every game in this order.

1. WIn

2. Leave with a positive feeling about being able to win the next one

I think #2 is the one that Blink#22 is not feeling great about.

We (I) miss you Steve

One should never be chastised for playing The Who.
