Cuse Wins 60-55!
I'll take it every time we kick this pitts to the curb. Fighting our way back into the dance.

Pitt hits a three with 4 seconds and then does not foul. SU wins by 5. 60-55

 

[ForCuseSake]

Obligatory 3 part Deux.

Ballgame. 60-55 final

Love Boeheim coaching up HW before he went to the line, then patting him on the butt after knocking down the 2 ft’s to ice the game. Little things build confidence for freshmen.

Ugly but ill take it

Easiest player of the game winner in history -come on down Bourama Sidibe! Saved our bacon today!

That woman in the stands is yelling very aggressively.

 

[Col. Bleep]

That final buzzer sounded so nice.

Quick thoughts.

Ugly game. Chukwu was not his normal (as of late) self, looked completely lost around the rim. Makes me wonder if teh goggles need to go or at least be replaced.

Sidibe carried the team in the second half. Battle scored in double figures. Defense was good but allowed too many open threes, likely due to the Pitt drought on threes but it will come back to bite the Orange, as proved by Pitt's threes late in the game. A better shooting team may have pulled off the comeback.

Pitt sucks, we should have won this game by 15, but we were sloppy in the first half.

The game was ugly. The W is always beautiful.

Tough ending to the game. Last 12 points by Pitt on two threes and twoo fouls on Syracuse on 3 pt shots. At least we wiggled through it all. Now just keep our fingers crossed that Sidibe knees are OK tomorrow when he gets out of bed.

Ugly game but I’ll happily take any W we get this year. Man, I’m almost talking myself into us making the dance being realistic at this point.

Sidibe looking great is just huge if that’s going to continue. Wow. I was so excited about him early in the year. Is he really healthy now? Love his potential. If healthy I really think he’s better as a freshman than AO, Jackson, Melo, Coleman, Christmas were. Going back a ways, throw in Etan and Watkins too.

It's a win. We needed it. We got it. Ugly as it was, it's a step in the right direction getting to the tourney.

Especially at the Pete. I'll take everyone on of those we can get, no matter how bad Pitt happens to be.

 

[OHIORANGES]

That was fugly

 

[orangenirvana]

Besides the Saint Bonaventure game, I'd say SU's two worst performances came against Pitt. And they won both games.








(Pitt is really, really terrible)

OOC schedule was strong. ACC schedule is strong regardless.

Just get W’s.
