i really want this one. much like in 03 it was all about the b12... would love to roll through the b10 as well. my biggest concern is the charges.. we know we will be able to get past wisky defenders with scoop, dion and kris.. but they know as well. they flop quickly and often and run a guy out to the open shooter to prevent the wide open three. the loss of posessions this way concerns me the most. we really need to have movement and have dump off options for the penetrators. i hope rak is ready. i also think cj will be key. he uses the hesitation dribble well and goes to the rim with a sense of direction and proper angles to avoid the charge.

Seth Davis said it all about Wisconsin. He said their style of play "cheats basketball" because they grab you all game long, and then when they're on defense, any tiny contact they throw their head back and fly to the floor to get charges. It's going to be a very frustrating game.

But Syracuse is more talented and athletic at every position.

Seth Davis didn't say that - he interviewed opposing coaches in the B10, and one of them said that.

Interesting, there may be many broken TV's in Syracuse come Thursday night.

Would be a nice game to get someone like Timmy Higgins then who calls any hand check.

You're correct, it was in Seth Davis' article about them. I misspoke. Either way, it's an interesting perspective, and one I can't disagree with having seen them play about five times this year.
