Somebody told somebody else that the way to beat Syracuse is to slow it way down and use the full shot clock. This is going to suck for the first three games in the Tournament.
 
Not really, You have to be able to make shots with very little time on the clock. Not many teams are capable of doing that. Also, why would teams change what got them to the tournament? For the most part, Teams want to play their "style" not adjust their game to beat us. I think only lesser teams like USF try to slow it down in order to pull he upset.
 
I agree that somebody told somebody that the slowdown is the way to beat us. Fact is; that somebody was wrong. Major conference teams have tried it against us approximately 14 times now and those that played a full strength Syracuse are 0-13 in those games.

So far, as best as I can figure, the only way to beat this Syracuse team is to get Fab into some kind of academic situation and combine that situation with shooting lights out on your home court while we sleepwalk through the entire game.
 
First two rounds of the tourney the teams will be so overmatched that this strategy won't be an option. After that, teams will play their style. We should be seeing prettier games from here on out (knock on wood).
