we’re gonna make the tournament

[CorduroyG]

wow. i cant believe this turnaround.

 

[Orangezoo]

Not there yet. Gotta get the next two first. Then comes the real shot at a pelt vs Duke

 

[Alsacs]

If we make the tournament this will be the greatest coaching job of JB’s career.

 

[Finwad32]

We will absolutely make the ACC Tournament...

Baby steps - they’re growing by leaps and bounds... have to keep finishing as we’re going to be in a lot of close games.

Yeah I figured they’d split the VTech and ND games. They just didn’t split the way I thought they would.
Still work to do.

 

[Cusesky8214]

Great win. Been fun watching these kids play this year and improve. Hopefully we can keep the momentum rolling!

Honestly, it might already be. We have now beat three teams that beat us. Oh, and they were all on the road wins.

 

[Orangezoo]

This one was impressive because it is an awful matchup for us and yet we outrebounded them, dealt with a prayer bank 3, a prayer turnaround 3 and honestly several awful calls. There was a lot to overcome along with also missing Howard. This reminded me of the win at ND in 03 where offense had to do it and it was Edelin like Hughes who took the Irish to school in the lane.

 

[Briancuse]

Dont Jynx it still a lot of work to do.

 

[Cusefan0307]

If we had beat ND and VT at home we would be in the top 25.

 

[jncuse]

The amusing thing when it comes to getting into the tournament.

Not all 1-1 splits are the same.
Going 1-1, but winning the road game looks better for your resume. The fact that we have 3 of them is good for us. (Of course 2-0 would be better)

Trinity: What's he doing?

Morpheus: He's beginning to believe.

Ahh, so that’s how we play the ‘what if’ game here these days.

Can we just play the rest of the schedule on the road?

 

[dasher]

Sadly, they are going to make us play some home games. Look, every team has to play them.

better to split this way. road wins much more valuable.

 

[Orangezoo]

UNC is screwing with our VPI win right now. Up 6 at Tech.

 

[bigmike]

Home games back at Manley to simulate the road?

 

[DilemaCuse]

Down 13 in the first half on the road

How many previous Cuse teams have came back from 13 on the road? Im sure there have been a few but I would think few and far between recently

Didn’t we do something like that to Georgetown not too long ago?

Went down big early, clawed back and eventually won.


And Duke was romping us at Cameron until Frank shoulder-checked Tre Jones into the boards.

And while it’s was “only” a neutral site game, you’ve got Malachi’s Gone Mad vs. UVA.

I remember a Gtown game at home like that the others match the description though

I wonder if the last 2 years squads did something like this

 

[UpstateSM]

It took awhile but I think we’re legitimately good. A top 4 ACC finish isn’t far-fetched with the way everyone in the middle of the pack is picking each other off

The Duke game.
Last January.
Started off down 0-12, then 2-14.

Eli 3 from the other end of the court.

Ringing any bells?

You're correct. We trailed Georgetown by 13 (53-40) with 10:30 to play on 12/16/2017 and came back to win in OT.

Sign me up for that. Dome morgue is just killing their vibe.
