The scouting report is clearly to allow Slim to shoot if she’s open. She just proved them wrong.

Fondren now with eight points on the night. Syracuse leads Nebraska, 22-18

ESPN officially has a #QCam solely on him. The world now knows what we have known for years.

  Tight game in Columbia as we reach the second media timeout of the half. Eight lead changes so far tonight.

  ESPN2 keeps the split-screen on Coach Q for about three possessions.

 

[Cheriehoop]

Sorry but please someone tell Butler to stop gunning. Drives me nuts.

 

[CuseLegacy]

Day sinks a free throw and Syracuse leads by two points.

Sam Blum ‏@SamBlum3 47s47 seconds ago
This is a scrappy, ugly game. Syracuse hanging on by 2 with 8:30 left to play. Looking for 2nd-ever NCAA tournament win.

Apparently Alexis Peterson has gone to the locker room. Don’t know the reason why.

Score is tied back up, then Butler hits a jumper. Syracuse leads 56-54

 

[CuseLegacy]

Brian Higgins ‏@BrianHigginsSU 37s37 seconds ago
Wild game so far. 7:44 to go an Orange lead the Huskers 56-54. Alexis Peterson leads all scorers with 20.
