NC State got robbed

[OttoinGrotto]

They were the better team today. If I'm an NC State fan I'm crushed right now. They outplayed us, plain and simple.

As a Syracuse fan though, I'm delighted. We are forcing our way in to this conference. The controversy and close finishes are great. We're the villains. We make great villains.

The better team always finds a way to win, and we keep finding a way to win.

If I was an NC State fan right now I would literally be contemplating suicide.

They turned the ball over twice in the last minute.

I don't even understand how we're winning these games. Team was sleepwalking for 35 minutes.

Serious credit to them. I felt they were an after thought. They showed up and nearly gave us more than we could handle.

We finally got some home court advantage the refs did everythign to help us some, but man we just didn't want to win that game. CJ's legs were missing today.

 

[longislandcuse]

Lol, im totally spoiled but im not even excited right now. That game was awful.

Ok, maybe a little excited.

39 minutes plus

Correction, team was sleepwalking for 39 minutes 50 seconds...for the 2nd game in a row.

I thought the basket on the baseball pass should've counted. Game over if it did.

If Grant is a first round pick,the way X-MAS is playing he would be a lottery pick. He throws up so many garbage shots from 5 feet and in and hits no rims on many.

Seriously, some say we have 3 first round picks and yet we are so challenged offensively....what gives?

 

[Knicks411]

Just went back; definitely looked like it should have been an and one on the Cooney foul.
The Pitt game was amazing, winning this one was more of a relief. We were incredibly fortunate to win that one.

 

[LAOrange]

The only thing is... how would they have played if the game hadn't been delayed? There are always what ifs.

 

[Col. Bleep]

The only thing we did well all night was get off the floor in a hurry.

 

[GFTakedown]

Rak played like he should be All-ACC rather than Ennis and Fair.

Crazy how us and Zona (with Ashley) are considered the two best teams in America yet we keep having rock fights and close games.

They always are a nightmare for us in the Dome. 2002 season they beat us with Julius Hodge. 2011 and this year we win in the final minute despite being heavy favorites in both.

 

[Solitude]

Really hope our guys learn something from this game. They look pretty lethargic most of the game with the exception of Christmas who single handely kept us in this game.

I respectfully disagree. I think they got that one right. I thought Cooney fouled him on the floor.

 

[perdurabo]

One thing I've noticed is that Cuse is the best conditioned team ever. Nobody holding their shorts at the foul line. They have that extra jolt of juice at the end. They are wearing out the competition.

 

[zhanjuzi]

Are you guys forgetting about the insane game that Rak had? Single handily keep us in the game .. awesome performance!

 

[retro44]

I respectfully disagree. I think they got that one right. I thought Cooney fouled him on the floor.

I AGREE

 

[Madbiker]

CJ Fair maybe the worst game of his career, couldn't hit anything...not even a clean basket on a breakaway. Tyler's worst game of the season. Cooney couldn't hit an open shot. Missed FT's down the stretch for the first time all year. And somehow won a game we shouldn't have won.

 

[Knicks411]

I respectfully disagree. I think they got that one right. I thought Cooney fouled him on the floor.

He didn't dribble again after Cooney got him; I'm pretty sure that's supposed to be an and 1. Not 100% sure the college rule though...
