Matchup wise, do we want Pitt or Syracuse?

Momentum. Keep rolling in NYC. Maybe a Bye Bye Bye tour this year - Cincy, Pitt/SU,Louisville?

Looks like we will play Syracuse for 2nd time in a week, unless Pitt decides to pass it to their seven footer in the middle and maybe play a little bit of defense.

Not really fair that we'd have to beat Syracuse AGAIN otherwise they'd get the last laugh. Tons to gain and little to lose for Cuse playing us again.
It is absurd to be afraid of Pitt. Everybody except Pomeroy and Vegas knows they aren't elite.

Never discount Syracuse's ability to show zero heart whatsoever.
This game is not over yet.

not being a chicken little but just stating facts: its extremely tough to beat a team 3 times in a row....esp after embarrassing them both times. It also looks like they've found they're shooting touch. They'll be extremely fired up to beat us if they finish this game out. C'mon Pitt

I don't care who they are... if you beat a team handily twice in a season it says something about who is the better team. No way we should feel nervous about a 3rd matchup with Syracuse.

Wow, we complain about Hopkins' hands? Adams is so weak with the ball.

Don't be naive. Look anyone we get is going to give us their best shot. It would be nice not to have extra motivation. The way I see it Pitt would be overconfident against us and Cuse will be looking for blood. Which would you rather face?
Cuse is playing MUCH better the last two games.

Well, if they're allowed to get away with fouls like that one right there, then yes, it will be a problem to have to play them. James Southerland is playing much better. I don't know that the team as a whole is.

Even more heart from Rakeem Christmas - Rivals website shows him as having 6 fouls.
