I thought we looked like the better team for most of it, but the officiating/foul situation got us out of sorts.

I agree and they fell apart at the end of the game.

Refs weren't bad, considering Michael Stevens was out there. And we got a huge break on the charge call MD drew.

Michael Stevens was pro SU today typically it’s the other way.

If the team had quit, then we would have had no business winning this game. However, Cuse never gave up and played hard till the final whistle.
How could you forget brains? Shame on you.

Gtown is pretty good. I think we all would like to see more in the half court. Seems like all we have right now is oshae tyus and frank slashing to the hole/pick and roll.
Losing Dickerson with more than 5 minutes left was huge for us. I can't believe Ewing didn't sit him for a couple of minutes after he picked up his fourth.

He's not my favorite guy to have out there. Wasn't he one of the team that flagrantly boned us against Villanova a few years back?

Hall of famer vs. rookie.
Yes.
He typically bones us. This game for some reason he was giving us breaks.
His charge call on the Gtown Big that fouled him out was a huge momentum play for us.

Was Ewing working him? I only saw the second half. And anyway, Stevens owed us at least one.

Stevens might have just decided to give us a few breaks today it will definitely go the other way in future games.

I think the guy in my avatar deserves some props. His decision to pressure (and to stick with the pressure even though it didn't work real well at the start) is what won the game. There is not a better "close game" coach alive.

I’ve never seen a Syracuse team dive on the floor like this one. We’ve had 2-3 guys who might. But today we had Marek, Oshae, Tyus, Frank, Matt, etc throwing themselves on the ground. While they can certainly be frustrating to watch, it’s really fun watching the team that fights and never gives up.
