Va Tech Gameday...

fun fact: syracuse is one of only 6 out of 18 teams in the acc with an above .500 record in the league thus far (currently in 6th place)

from reading this board, youd think they were in last place
I mean if we lose 1 of the next 4 games we’re pretty much out of the tournament. And that would make it 5 years in a row.

I respect that you're trying to be optimistic, but our standards are higher than just finishing higher than .500 in conference.

we are now. SU has an incredible amount of work to do to even be in bubble consideration. There are four games left where we are a probably favorite, including tonight, plus a first round ACC tourney game against a mediocre team. Projected wins are barely 17 at this point. So, with the rest on the road or against better ranked teams or both and we'll need to win 5 of them to be bubbly. At no point in Red's tenure have they shown to be able to consistently beat good teams. The big step forward this season is that we're not routinely losing by 20 or 30 points (except Iowa St.).

The only thing Autry and our guys have shown is they are consistent at playing down to competition and playing up to competition every once in awhile.

I said before that I don’t expect many blowouts with this squad. There always seems to be a hot hand or two to keep us in games.

The reason Autry is so hated is because we’ve lost 3 games where we had the ball in our hands to win it on the last possession and because he spent all game screwing with the players and substituting he lost the the hot hand and it bit us in the end.

Probably because besides Clemson, the teams we have played so far are a combined 5-17.

Isn't the whole league about the same

11 teams with 2 games of 4th and 16th

I Miami was getting some love for being 4-2 15-4 but lost to ND/Clem but beating Wake/Gt/Pitt
