that really remains to be seen, because their real problem since their Final Four run has been their closing kick.
  • In 2010, they lost 4 of their last 6 (and one of the wins was a very lucky OT win over 15 seed Robert Morris in the NCAA tourney, but they still suffered a second round upset loss to 10 seed St. Mary's
  • In 2011, they lost their last 6 in a row, including a first round loss to 9 seed George Mason
  • In 2012, they were never a likely NCAA team, but losing 6 of their last 8 and 11 of their last 14 knocked them out of NIT, CBI and even CIT consideration
  • In 2013, the lost 4 of their last 6 including a first round loss in the NCAAT

Even if they beat SU tomorrow and own two of the best wins in College Basketball, the real tale will be told in February March, when we'll see if Wright's style of play leaves the tank empty once again.


 
this is a magical season, they were scheduled with us at this time so we can hand them their first loss of the season in the dome

going to be magical tomorrow
