The Poojer Posted November 23, 2005 Posted November 23, 2005 what happened? sounds like yet another team that came in and shot lights out, don't know if that is a testament to the other teams ability to hit the shots or our inability to defend the outside shots. SU has the talent to be very good, but with perfomances like that and Cornell......eeeks Who's next? we're 4-1 v.s. top 20 teams in the past year.... 510670[/snapback]
smokinandjokin Posted November 23, 2005 Posted November 23, 2005 Where's Poojer? I seem to remember having a finger pointed at all of us who said the Orange were going to struggle this year after they eeked out a victory against Cornell... Now losing to Bucknell on the road would be embarrassing, but at the Dome??? Cuse is middle of the road in the Big East this year.
The Poojer Posted November 23, 2005 Posted November 23, 2005 look directly above you! Where's Poojer?

Now losing to Bucknell on the road would be embarrassing, but at the Dome??? Cuse is middle of the road in the Big East this year. 510837[/snapback]

Now you can point the finger at the Orange defense for some of that, and rightfully so, but don't belittle the excellent night of shooting that Bucknell had either. Plus, unlike college football, losing some early won't hurt you. It's all about winning late.
smokinandjokin Posted November 23, 2005 Posted November 23, 2005 don't belittle the excellent night of shooting that Bucknell had either. 510931[/snapback] I'm not belittling Bucknell at all. I was belittling Syracuse.

Everyone knows that a team has a 5-year grace period from criticism after winning a championship... 511036[/snapback] I've never been a big 'Cuse fan...I should be I suppose, because they are the only major D1 college upstate. But that's part of the reason I never liked them- because everyone else around does. I never liked that whiney bastard Boeheim either (although he has gotten 100x better in that aspect recently.) I used to wish he would just get angry instead of putting the pouty face on. My brother-in-law went to school there and I always dog him about 'Cuse sports. He sent me an email this morning bemoaning the loss before I could even say anything to him! Did you see the game last night? I didn't, and you were the first to tell me BU's shooting stats. I don't like teams that play all zone, and Cuse does, but they play a 2-3 like no other team, so I do respect that. However, Boeheim seems to stick with it even when teams are exposing them. Did JB switch out of the zone when Bucknell was hitting 80%?
