Postgame thoughts... WVU (NCAAT)

[UpstateSM]

I want to beat Rutgers in the Sweet 16 more than I can put into words

 

[City of Cuse]

Anyone else super sweaty?! Go CUUUUUUUUUSE!

 

[cliftonparksufan]

Marek staying in the game after picking up the forth was beyond huge. He may defer but he is basically the pg at the top of the key. Dropping dimes.
Bras with that massive 3 too.

JAB didn't have his best moment but Huggins failing to drive at Marek every play was why they lost.

 

[Zelda Zonk]

We blew the lead with him out of the game, grew the lead to 9 with him in then almost blew it again with him out. What worked? Putting a game that should’ve been on cruise control into an opportunity for WV to tie the game with no time left?

Points shaving. Investigation pending.

 

[capeorange]

- I am not well.

- Boeheim slide rule... am I right? Discuss that last minute...

- Sweet 16!

I was going to start this thread with 30 seconds left in the game just to bust on you but Iwas paralyzed on my couch.

Great game! Sweet 16!

I understand your words

Speculation about whether we play Sat or Sun ?

I would think Saturday, as all the Midwest and South games are being played today.

 

[Cowtown]

Sixteen offensive boards was huge.

 

[NKR1978]

What the hell was jim doing the last 40 seconds with those inbounds. He kept inbounding to the corner. To braswell and Q!!!! They are not dribblers or big time passers!!! That was outrageous!!! I was having a damn coronary!!!

Is it possible that the defense made it relatively easy to pass there for a reason?

 

[Cusesky8214]

Man I'm so fricken happy! Hard to believe we are sweet 16 bound. What a turn around. I want to just say Jim Boeheim keeps finding ways to get the most out of his team...stubborn old SOB but God damn he can coach under the big lights! And Buddy Buckets is out of this world. he is the story of the Tournament considering he's a midmajor talent and shouldn't be starting in the ACC. What A STUD HES BECOME!! IDK WHY IM TYPING IN BOLD AND CAPS AND YELLING BUT I CANT STOP!!!! LFGO!!!!

 

[Ajflood12]

JAB didn't have his best moment but Huggins failing to drive at Marek every play was why they lost.

Agreed. Even raf and Nantz couldn’t believe it. Them not getting a 5 on marek and edwards was insane. If JBA comes in I don’t see us pulling it out.

 

[walsh2012]

Remember we were mad about missing out on andre jackson

 

[syrBossHogg]

Ya, no!!!! (Not at you) but Bazely does not get to call him an orange fan IMO. He screwed us (yes I’m being selfish) but NOOO DANGIT!!!

Haha I agree but if he wants to write a check to help future SU players I'm ok with it

 

[IthacaMatt]

Great win, but was very nerve-wracking seeing us keep passing it to the corner on those inbounds plays and having Braswell in instead of Kadary on those plays until the end. How do you not have your best ball handler on the court in that situation? Like Braswell, but ballhandling is not his strength. With the way Q has been at the FT line recently, can argue he could have been taken out there, too.

I agree with you.
The only reason I can think to keep Braswell in was for defense and rebounding with Marek having 4 fouls.

I was amazed how many times WVU guys dribbled into the lane in the second half and turned away from him. Literally dumbfounded.

 

[HtownOrange]

I’d rather see Rutgers. We’re better than them.

Agreed, but I cannot stand Rutgers and I live just north of Houston. For their third strike, I don't like Rutgers.

 

[Chalupa_24]

I'm pulling for Houston.

For your bracket? Or easier game

 

[OrlandoCuse]

After about 40 years of watching SU in the NCAAt, I’ve come to appreciate how difficult it is to win games in the Dance. I now relish each and every win we get.

Go Cuse!!

 

[SBU72]

Please play Kadary more please it's the end of the season please

Please stop finding fault for this SWEET SIXTEEN team!

 

[Chip]

At a couple points I thought I’d be posting this from the hospital.

But I’m not.

What a game.

WHAT A WIN.

See you all next week.

Yup. Dolejaz was the difference. A bad foul, but early in the game he was in their heads... deciding when to step up and when to drop. Some incredible passes. And the fortitude to not get his fifth. What a game for him.

Great game! Sweet 16!

skurey beat me to it Friday but I was out at gore mountain with little service and had my wifi off to ensure the game would be okay streaming

 

[JustPherU]

I don't want to take all the credit, but I changed from Samuel Adams to leftover Yeungling shortly after the half. I dumped that crap and went back to Samuel Adams and BAM, sweet 16. Don't tell me I can't coach.

I made mysel sit down, every time I stood up something bad would happen.Thought I was going to soil the couch because I refused to get up and let the bad mojo creep in.

 

[OrlandoCuse]

9-2 as an 11 seed rofl

Technically 9-2 as a double digit (10 and 11) seed, but same difference

 

[Cusesky8214]

Might be time to check out the boneryard for a second to see them crying yes I'm petty like that!

 

[81South]

That was a malox masher...we need to clean up the press break...and why was Kadary taking the ball out in that one spot? But give the boys credit we could have folded when they took the lead but we stayed composed and really played great. So gritty and so impressive. Cuse vs Sister Jean in the elite 8...I’m calling it now
