Syracuse vs Wisconsin carbon copy of Syracuse vs Oklahoma 2003

just a prediction. Also expect it to be a home game just like in 2003.

I hope you're right, but I don't know.

That Oklahoma game was on 2 days worth of preperation--which played into our hands. They looked completely baffled by the zone--absolutely confounded. I'm not suggesting that the outcome would have been different if Kelvin Sampson had a week to prepare for it, but who knows.

Like I said--I hope you're right.

To quote Scoop: "Just win."

I expect it to look more like a game against USF. The over under on combined points could be 100.

If Syracuse shoots it well, it could be over quick. That's a big "if" though.

Wisconsin has guys who are all prepared to shoot the 3. They WANT to shoot the 3. Very different from Oklahoma.

I am ready for a game where we shoot it well......I'd like a blowout and if not a blowout a tighter game in which the offense plays well. These rock fights are tough to watch.

Oklahoma wanted to shoot to, but couldn't.

maybe Triche will make a few shots. Here's hoping.

I'd rather have him or Scoop drive early and get Taylor in some foul trouble. The touch-fouls that have been called so far in our games could play a big role if Taylor can't get away with them.

The key will be how officials call Wisconsin's defense. They are notorious for grabbing, hand-checking, and basically fouling on nearly every play. They're known for "tough, in your face pressure defense." Because of that reputation they get away with more than other schools do. Bottom line, they foul A LOT and get away with it. It's the basic theory "if we do it every play they can't call it every play." And they're right.
