Message: [QUOTE="jdubs30, post: 944352, member: 1620"] We're getting bashed by EVERYONE; Duke, Arizona, NC State, Pittsburgh, UConn, etc. When was the last time ANY of these teams were 25-0? We're in uncharted territory; something that none of us have seen in our lifetime watching Syracuse and very few programs in college basketball history have experienced. Pitt fans are complaining about Wednesday; NC State fans are complaining about tonight; Duke is still crying about 2 weeks ago; everyone is calling is overrated. Guess what? 25-0. In the ACC. It hasn't been done in 40 years. Maui Champs. Dismantled Nova. How many top 10 teams in the past decade have lost at least one flukey game by February? A lot. This team is special. Have we been lucky? Sure, maybe a few times; but it's college basketball, no one is 25-0 by blowing out 25 teams. You have to have that extra gear, the characteristic that separates you from everyone else. You have to have that magic at the end of the game sometimes, a few wins that make people say "how did they do that?"; you want people to say "how are they winning these games?". That means you're doing something right. Will we cut the nets down in April? Who knows. But this team is doing something that no ACC team has done in over 40 years, and pretty much no major conference team has done in over 20 years. Take a step back and realize what we are witnessing here. Not every game will be perfect, but 25-0 is perfect. This team doesn't have 8 NBA players; this team doesn't have 8 All-Americans; but this team refuses to lose and has won in almost every way imaginable. It's February 16, we have a month and a half left of this ride; sit back and enjoy it, we could be witnessing history. [/QUOTE]
