This game has put all SU fans through the full spectrum of emotions

Seriously. I've only turned off one game before its ending, in 33 years. Had the impulse today, but resisted. Quite a payoff.

Great win! Unbelievable comeback.

 

[Col. Bleep]

The season is made!

The best day of the year is always a day we beat these scoundrels!

 

[NKR1978]

Is it me, or did their big guy from Queens commit an offensive foul on every single pick he set?

 

[Cowtown]

Damn, I enjoyed that!

I posted the same thing. I almost did it... but I hung in there. Gotta remember these guys play ugly but they have heart.

This team has some unbelievable grit.

Last year’s team would have lost by 20.

 

[HOFCeluck]

I seriously fell asleep at halftime, woke up with one minute left in OT, and went through the play by play of the second half.

lol.

 

[NorSyr66]

Derrickson call was a big call. Replay showed it closer than real time. But Orange prevail!!!!

Check

Incredible half from OB, his best of the year.

We won just how I thought we would, with our press and great 3 point shooting lol

 

[Scooch]

Mea culpa. Huuuuuge win. All guts.

 

[hoopsupstate]

OB scores over 20 in the second half. He showed me something today about handling adversity. He is going to be special. We all were all over him in the first half. Battle can be mind boggling at times, but then comes right back with a huge play. Nice road win for a young team.

 

[rrlbees]

we rebounded 44% of our missed shots and FTs.

I need to pick up some stuff for myself at Bloomingdale’s, and almost left down 13. Now I’m drunk and happy and saved myself $500.

At the under 4 TO I thought, "It isn't gonna happen" but I said "Keep watching, ya never know."

 

[OrangeSky]

I feel like this team really grew up some in the 2nd half and in OT. You could see the change in confidence as the comeback progressed. This game will help them in the future.

 

[Tom K.]

That was just a gritty win. A dig in your heels and find out what you're made of win.

This team is so great to watch.

 

[OrangeDW]

Honestly didn’t see us winning this game...until the final minute of regulation. Once we got to that point, I felt great about our chances.

Jimmy knows how to pull out games, and it’s nice having guys like Marek who make winning plays.

Brissett had a great second half and Battle hit some huge shots.

24 and 10 in the 2nd half.

Fine use of the word "scoundrels"!

 

[Trueblue25]

I don’t disagree with your assessment which has nothing to do with the dumb comment I referenced.

Dumb? Lol challenging a shot while having few fouls is basketball 101

 

[Zelda Zonk]

Battle isn't one of the top 50 players in the country. Somehow.

 

[Funk Doc]

Is it me, or did their big guy from Queens commit an offensive foul on every single pick he set?

Yes! Two handed shove as the guy slipped off the pick! Nothing overly hard, but it was definitely there.

Also, credit to Howard. He had some rough stretches but didn’t fold and made some big plays.
