Ga Tech Game Thread

The call didn't cost them the game. SU gagging for the middle 25 mins of the game did.

 

[Scooch]

Bullsh!t call.

Boeheim will probably light Roberson up in the presser. Because motivation something something.

 

[Ajflood12]

Cuse should spot the other team 10 points to start the second half...they don't play well until down 22 with under 7. This season is maddening.

 

[SaltLakeOrange]

Your anti Gillon agenda is insane. That's on the ref.

I said IF it was a foul...I don't think it was..

And it's up to the freaking guard to let the pick get set...I have no agenda other than to call a mediocre player a mediocre player. He's NOT THAT GOOD and is a more a liability than an asset. If you think otherwise, you're not watching the same game as me...

 

[Cusefan0307]

ACC officiating sucks. Makes Burr and Higgins look like NBA quality.

 

[Zelda Zonk]

Roberson was set. Wasn't moving. I hope JB goes apeshit in the presser.

He will. But on Roberson.

 

[Alsacs]

I refuse to believe we practice offense.
Our sets are so bad. We lost this game on offense.

 

[JLine]

What a terrible call. We didn't deserve to win anyway. Again, we should have just shot a damn three for the win.

 

[NineOneSeven]

I didn't have a way to watch this game but would like to see this play based on all the reactions here.

Unless it's blatant, how can you call that?

He's not wrong

 

[kirbivore]

SU is like a procrastinating student with these deficits and furious comebacks. Sometimes you pull it together and make the deadline, sometimes not.

 

[Ajflood12]

Watching the replay. Boeheim better bash the ref and not Roberson. The guy was set and got hit and moved his foot. What a BS call.

Because the ga tech player jacked his head back and the ref has no idea what he's doing

 

[hoopsupstate]

If there is someone to get after it should be Lydon. He missed an uncontested layup and the steal could have easily been a three point play and it ended up being only one. During this three game losing streak, Lydon has done very little.

You simply can't call a moving pick in that circumstance, especially when Roberson was set. Decided the game. Seek therapy Orange fans.

Heartbreaking loss for Syracuse. No dog in this fight, but loathe when zebras ruin end of game drama. Simply ridiculous.

 

[STEVEHOLT]

1. Bullshit call

2. Tactical error having Roberson in the game on the GTech possession prior to the bs call as Syracuse had no timeouts and you're trapped with Robby on offense even if you get the stop

We practice offense a ton.

I write a lot. I'm not Stephen King.

 

[Madbiker]

Too many mistakes. The last 30 seconds of 1st half was a killer. Should have been up 6 not 3 at half because of Gillon's bonehead mistake. Of course it turns out to be huge. Very questionable call on Roberson at end. Should have just been a play on. Ref interjected himself to decide the game.

We practice against a zone. One kind of zone.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Officials for tonight's game: Doug Shows, Tim Clougherty, Joe Lindsay

Add them to the list...

Watch more basketball. It is fine if the ball handler leaves early before a screener is set. The screener has to see that and simply slip it. Our players aren't coached that. That said, it wasn't an illegal screen anyways.

 

[PauliePeppas]

Lolllll at anyone defending that ref, get outta here

I'm done if he does.

If that was a foul, Gillon was fouled at the end of regulation in the Louisville game.

 

[djcon57]

SU is like a procrastinating student with these deficits and furious comebacks. Sometimes you pull it together and make the deadline, sometimes not.

Which is why as furious I am about the call, this is all on JB and Gillon imo. They let this game slip away
