Maryland Game Day Thread - 11/27/17

[longislandcuse]

Not a terrible half considering we didn't get much from Battle and they hit some long threes while we had about 3 or 4 go in and out.

 

[two3zone]

Glad to get to half time with the lead.

 

[NYCorange]

Battle is clearly very limited.

 

[SoBeCuse]

Glad to get to half time with the lead.

Seriously. I would’ve been pissed if they had he lead with 11 turnovers.

 

[rrlbees]

I’m confident. Tyus, Frank and Oshae aren’t going to go 7-27 next half.

Three point shot is the equalizer. They're shooting 41% and us, 14%. We desperately need some of these to drop.

 

[Fly Rodder]

Impressed with the SU rebounding and defensive effort. Offense is weak.

Huerter looks good.

Entertaining game though.

 

[GonzoInMD]

Maryland's defense stinks.

 

[realorange]

And how many thought we'd have a team playing like this----at least this early in the season.

I thought we'd see some players improve, but these guys are gelling much faster as a team.

Oh, are we through wondering about Frank?

 

[longislandcuse]

Maryland's defense stinks.

What does that make our defense? We either turn them over or give up a dunk/open three.

 

[two3zone]

I’m confident. Tyus, Frank and Oshae aren’t going to go 7-27 next half.

That, but Maryland doesn't have 11 turnovers either.

 

[PauliePeppas]

Can drive on them anytime we want, gotta think Boeheims preaching that right now

 

[NKR1978]

Really need to hit a couple threes just to keep their defense honest.

 

[sugrad68]

Probably the worst defensive effort of the season. Maryland, a team with shooting problems, hitting 48%. Terrible 3-point shooting team hitting 42%. If it wasn't for 11 Maryland TOs the Cuse would be in trouble. Dolezaj 3 turnovers. Team shooting 15% on 3s. Maryland defense is not strong but SU struggled down the stretch after having a 7 point lead. Hopefully tighter defense and better shooting for SU in the 2nd half.

Exactly

 

[Fly Rodder]

Oh, are we through wondering about Frank?

A little. I didn’t think he had it in him so good on him for working hard and improving. But he’s been an inefficient scorer. He needs to limit TOs and get all those steals to make up for the low FG %.

 

[longislandcuse]

That, but Maryland doesn't have 11 turnovers either.

They seem pretty turnover prone given they had 42 in the prior two games.

Yup. Let's play some bully ball. Drive to the hoop and crash the glass.

 

[pearl31]

Maryland is playing like crap. We should be up 15.

dude come on

 

[pearl31]

Battle is clearly very limited.

yep

 

[DonLightfoot]

Those turnovers and only down one at the half. They should be thrilled.

 

[Oakland]

I like OB more than JG

Wow Brissett is going to be a stud. Reminds me of jerami Grant in terms of how quick he can get off floor.

 

[ssbriefcase]

That, but Maryland doesn't have 11 turnovers either.

Eh, they're averaging 17/game

 

[pearl31]

I like OB more than JG

def more of an offensive game

 

[NKR1978]

Those turnovers and only down one at the half. They should be thrilled.

Shooting 14% from 3 and we’re winning against a hot shooting team?
