Wright again in street clothes. ugg where do all these cuse fans come from? many already here, and it looks like there will likely be more in the lower bowl than any other opposing fan base.
Mcdonough (NOOOOO), raftery, and bilas calling the game.
Im pretty convinced that Bryan Colangelo (toronto gm) was sitting in sect 121 during early warmups. ill post pictures tomorrow or wednesday.
Looks to be another sell out.

I hope people keep track of who's giving up their seats to these fans from opposing schools. I can't stand watching these games on TV and hearing the opposing fans cheering in our arena.

Jonathan playing very smart with the exception of two turnovers, but he's playing his butt off right now...nice shot Jeremiah...gotta watch this guy Johnnie Flynn...way to go the cup Jessie with 8:55 left...timeout Syracuse...man, I them Hoyas playing really good right now...Roy is resting early...this great so far...

I agree with Bilas and Raferty-that was a FLOP. Beautiful move by Ticket

Played way too sloppy early -- too many turnovers and lazy shots -- but really improved.
Roy is playing like a beast when he gets the ball. First time I've seen him execute through double teams via strength, and we should work in their a bit more.

This Syracuse team could give Boeheim a heart attack by the end of the year. They are pretty much all over the place. They have potential to be dangerous, but they are just way too undisciplined. We should win this one going away...but rivalry games are rivarly games...

McDonough making sure to lay all of the exCuses on the table early on.
Our half court offense wasn't great, but I think our transition game will make our efficiency numbers look better than you'd expect. I hope we've seen the last of the Hibbert switch on to Flynn for tonight (but I'm sure I hope in vain).

agree with SF, lots of silly TO's early. i won't even mention the offensive boards. the ref completely blew it at the end of the half not stopping the clock after the flynn 3. first, harris knocks the ball in the 3rd row, then he steps OOB getting in the way of the inbounds, witht he clock running the entire time. good job by rivers to at least get a look. both he and tyler played well off the bench.

I agree Locker-I am sure in practice it is nice and cute how Hibbert hustles to switch out up top, but this really needs to stop. It serves no purpose.

Johnny Flynn is the real deal. Yikes, and only a freshman. Hoyas not playing with the intensity this game deserves. 'Cuse is playing hard... despite their early deficit. Big East basketball. Nothing comes easy.
Hoyas better wake up and take this to another level of intensity... NOW! Roy -- time to take over!

we look pretty terrible. for some reason, this team doesn't have the fire that last year's did. these syracuse kids are simply tougher right now.

Is Summers brain dead?!?! A horrible foul on the Three point shot, then he tossed up a three with 10 seconds to go on the shot clock?

Agree that it was a poor choice by Summers. We were lucky to get away with a win.

Johnny Flynn.... if he weren't wearing orange I would really like that kid.
But hey... BIG EAST... our guys need to be far more prepared -- emotionally ready to go aggressively against these teams. Nothing comes easy in this conference. Team and Fans need to remember that.
All that said..... OHHHH!!!! How sweet it is to be the 'CUSE!!!!
