- Another game where we defended well enough to win. Louisville was held to 58 points. Three starters, Peyton Siva, Chane Bohanan and Wayne Blacksheare were a combined 2 for 21. They shot 36% from the field, (same as us), 35% from three point range, (worse) and, for what it’s worth, 58% from the foul line, (also worse).
- We also out-rebounded the Cardinals 41-36. Turnovers were 14-16. It’s a winning box score.
- It’s not that we aren’t a good team. We are very competitive with good teams and have beaten a number of them. At most of the schools in the country and even most of them in this conference, this would have been the best team they had had in years. It’s just not one of the better Syracuse teams.
- The 2009 team lost 7 of 10 games, then pulled themselves together for 7 straight wins, including the famous 6OT game. And they begot the 2010 team. The 2011 team lost 6 of 8 game, then won 6 in a row. And they begot the 2012 team. We’ve now lost 6 of 10. What’s next?
22-7 with 2 and more to be done.
LET’S GO ORANGE!
