PrintCornell Big Red at Syracuse Orange, Nov 24, 2009 7:00 PM EST
In a matter of days the Orange have gone from under-the-radar to...over-the-radar? Cornell is the worst kind of opponent right now...a frisky mid-major that can shoot lights out and knows how to play us. Battle stations, everyone.

stupid time warner / ESPN360 crap
how to fake it out (repost from the Rutgers game):
ISP: Verizon
Username: syracuse44
Password: syracuse44
3-3 tie
Triche 3 followed a Cornell 3
Wittman has a foul, AO has a charge. Johnson FG to make it 5-3 SU
it must be blacked out in Syracuse. All the other games work
EFFF Time Warner for not putting this game on.
Glaude
almost committed a felony. Thank God its up.

as this is frozen
i keep seeing cornell’s score increasing by 3…not good
if you’re way behind on the feed, hit go live by the volume controls to catch up a bit. 360 feed is behind normally, but it seems like it slowly starts lagging more and more unless you resync by hitting go live.
Good Observation
Exactly what I did as well

Higgins
reffing? Crap.
Without Gerry McNamara we wouldn't have won 10 f-- games, not 10

we won't be able to pull away from cornell
until the refs start calling that illegal screen out top that’s basically cornell’s set play everytime down
I like
how b/c of their 3 pt shooting we’re basically playing a 3-2 zone

might be our Gerry McNamara designated free throw shooter this year

I say the team just holds hands and forms a curve around the 3 point line.
And see what Cornell does. They don’t seem to be able to even score inside the line even when wide open.
"Nice feed inside"
Right, if Wes could jump a foot higher. But at least he got it in the hoop before time expired.
They're zone is playing well, despite the crazy amount of 3s.
And I’m happy with the Cuse offense for the most part.
But Syracuse isn’t getting the rebounds they should and are giving Cornell too many second chances. I think that’s the big difference. We snag a few more of those defensive rebounds and we’re up by 15 right now.
yeah
he doesn’t read much, otherwise he would have known that our players don’t believe they’re on a pedestal right now and they knew exactly what they were in for tonight.
Only thoughts I'll post until the game's over
Live/Die by 3. Cornell hopefully misses a couple more. And then we will have a couple more chances to get the rebounds we should be getting.
Actually, both teams look pretty good. Would hate to play for or against Cornell come tourney time, as a particularly cold/hot game is lurking at any time.

Didn't
think timmy higs was gonna call that

cornell turnovers
i think our guys realize that they don’t have to collapse the zone so much against these guys
I thought
for a second we might have a repeat of this

The
best thing I saw from him was the possession where he got the ball, then spent 5 seconds looking for someone else to give the ball to.

Unfair Comparison
Craig Forth was at least active around the rim. Not stationary like a windmill

Mookie left right after a spirited discussion with Boeheim

Between that and...
“TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS”
Are they still relying on Jock Jams Vol. 1?

our boys are looking tired, just letting cornell have those shots
i realize we’re up by a lot, but i have no desire to see this game end up close
next years starting center
DaShonte or Fab Melo ? or Rick Jackson? although gotta think Rick stays at pf
WHY
are we jacking up shots with 25 seconds left on the shot clock?
Without Gerry McNamara we wouldn't have won 10 f-- games, not 10
Time
to sit back and relax until 12/10 when we go to Fla

Wow.
I really, really, really thought that Cornell was actually going to win the game. How lucky I was wrong! I seriously thought Cornell was better than both Cal AND UNC coming into tonight.
Very good game for the Orange. Oh, and my sign kicked ass

And now I will watch the game over and over again just to see me on the intro to the game
Manny's Online just started selling SU b-ball replica jerseys
They have eight jersey numbers – Scoop, Wes, Andy, AO, Rick, KrisJo, Triche, and Southerland…
but no jersey for Mookie!
I wonder if that was weighing on his mind tonight.
Boeheim, chanelling his inner Marrone
"I think our guys did a tremendous job tonight, particularly at the start of the second half, adjusting defensively," Boeheim said.
