Pitt opens -3 over Syracuse...

The Zoo is gonna be nuts tomorrow. Does anyone have a strong feeling either way about tomorrow? Let it be known!!

I just hope we start like we did against Louisville. Get up on them early and really rebound the basketball,

If we can stay out of foul trouble I think we will win.

I look for CJ to have a 20 and 11 type game

I guess I don't really understand why we're considered the underdogs? Is it just based on past history with Dixon? I'm pretty sure we're the better team by a decent margin.

I think we blow em out, win by 14 but it wont be that close.

Think I was the only one to call the Nova loss, if I get this one right I may start charging.

The advanced stats, which Vegas usually tracks, love Pitt. AS I said in a different thread, Pomeroy has Pitt -4.

Interesting. Maybe I just need to watch them more. I think the few times I caught them were the games that they lost.

I think we lose something like 71-62. It's going to be an extremely difficult game to win based on the fact that we're short-handed and Dixon understands how to coach against our zone. (If we win, I promise to man up and call myself out)

Obviously I'm going to be cheering like a maniac tomorrow, but I'm approaching the game with the mindset that it would be tolerable loss. It's college hoops - you're going to drop a few.

Probably because we're down two scholly dudes now and since conference play started we are pretty bad at defensive rebounding. I have a feeling Pitt will bitch slap us on the offensive glass tomorrow with Zanna/Adams and co.

Don't like this matchup for us at all. In fact, I never like our matchup with Pitt. Hate their clutch and shove defense. Their style is like kryptonite to us.

 

[jordoo]

If we hang with them on the glass specifically our defensive board we win rather easily if not MCW will have to make plays at the end to win a tight bball game . . . . . . which he will this time.

I find that hard to believe . . . baths are just a rumor in that town, so bathrobes must be as scarce are unicorns

We win

 

[dasher]

that makes it a system play. That also means we probably lose.

 

[CorduroyG]

I got a bad feeling we lose by double digits tomorrow. But don't worry I'm usually wrong.

My rule is if we are a dog bet us to win. Over time its has been a winning strategy

 

[shermstheman]

It seems like everything is against the Cuse, down to 7 players, Pitts been playing well, big homecourt factor, Dixon has had real success against Cuse, bathrobes, Pitt is priming this as a huge game...therefore Cuse wins.

no gloves?

no gloves?

they're just not committed enough

Cuse ML to the bank. Such a gift from the books because people will fall for Pitt thinking it's a trap to take Syracuse.
