This barely resembles basketball

Just awful quality of game. You need the "good" basket so the sun isn't in your eyes and the wind is wreaking havoc.

What a DUMB gimmick. Never again, please. If they continue to play these, let the Rutgers' of the world who need attention anyway they can get, have these games.

That said, I love this team.

At least the sun will be down a bit after halftime.

This game reminds me of a LAX game more than a hoop game.

 

[OrangeCrush22]

I agree I'm not much of a fan of this. The vets and current active duty love it, though.

Real stupid idea. Should be played strictly as an exhibition. The wind and sun a a real bitch. Of course to a couple folks its no different than playing indoors. Neither team should be penalized in the polls.

yeah these conditions are not your normal outdoor game but you should keep mentioning it in every thread you can.

Those who can't shoot outside of 5 feet themselves, may not understand.

Two.

Then why would you say it was no different if others along with players and coaches were saying it was, by a lot. You just wanted to jump in that other thread not knowing what you we're talking about.

MCW has been absolutely brutal today. We should be up 25.

 

[albanycuse]

This is a and 1 street ball game.

Wheres the professor and hot sauce ?

Without the and 1s

 

[cuseguy]

There's a reason why they play basketball indoors

 

[tbonezone]

horrible. i keep waiting for triche to throw a bucket of confetti at the crowd. just horrible.

 

[Bortukal]

Dick Enberg is just adding to this painful experience.

 

[44PRIDE]

Yeah, Dick Enberg is just awful. Surprised he isn't bringing up stories of the old "peach basket" games

Don't worry, I still luv ya even tho I made my post before pregame and it was just common sense.

Like the OP said, never again. Let's hope not anyway.
That didn't even seem like a real basketball game.

Imagine what it would have been like if SU lost.

 

[MGP]

Thanks for visiting sunny California. Now can we start the real season?

 

[AlaskaSU]

For part of the game I saw the feed. This is the most brutal unappealing game I've ever seen Syracuse play and I've followed virtually all games for more decades than I care to admit to.

The only positive about this game was it honored our troops on Veteran's Day. That is all.

Agreed, though there are tons of other ways to do that while playing indoors.
