What's the narrative next week?

[heresjohnny88]

Last week: "No way Syracuse should've made it in."

This week: "Syracuse is in the Sweet 16 but they had the easiest path ever."

Next week???

How about, " Syracuse made it to the Final 4, it's Obama's fault!"

Or: Boeheim's a cheater. That's what the fricken knuckleheads will say.

The NCAA just started a ten year investigation on how Syracuse made it to the FF.

 

[br801]

Weakest Final Four team of the modern era.

Next week: "Syracuse fans continue to obsess over what the media says instead of enjoying their team's success."

 

[HoustonCuse]

They could go with what they did in 1996 and question the entire structure of the NCAA tournament because SU made it to the Final Four. If you recall, there was incessant discussion about reseeding the tournament after the Final Four was set because of a lowly 4 seed being on one side of the bracket. I said it in another post, but I just cannot fathom where the deep rooted hatred of Syracuse comes from.

Syracuse got lucky against an 11 seed then played a familiar opponent in Virginia so it doesn't count.

Not gonna lie it would be pretty awesome to beat UVA, UNC then Duke on the way to win the title

Go read other team's message boards, they are already starting with the We cheat nonsense.

I'm hoping we crush Gonzaga, not just because I want SU to win, but because we'll get a couple more days of my favorite narrative that I've been enjoying this week:

SU Fan: It's great to see Syracuse playing so well!
Media: No. They're not playing well. Gonzaga just stinks.
SU Fan: But weren't you just saying how good they were?
Media: Yeah, but we were wrong. They can't be good because they just lost so bad to Syracuse.
SU Fan: Ah, I see. Savvy analysis.

One things for sure... all of those tired segments of how to beat the zone will come out again. I swear I saw the one with Bobby Knight around 5 times.

Problem is, you can't beat the zone without the ACC logo to start from.

Syracuse was lucky to have virtual home games in St. Louis and Chicago to reach the FF.

Next week???

2 Orange freshman in the 1st round of the latest mock drafts

They gone

Exactly. How will they know where to position their "zone-buster"?
A: they won't.

 

[heresjohnny88]

"What a comeback."

I do think it's nice we've gotten a break from the "Practically a home game for Syracuse."
