Syracuse Basketball has Finally Returned!! (Sort of) | Bleeding Orange
As much as I enjoy the agony that is the Syracuse football roller coaster, it’s well-known that I’m a basketball fan first and foremost. Football season is just a space for me to bide my time until hoops finally starts up again. So, it was with great relish that I tuned into the Orange‘s first exhibition game against the Pace University Setters on Thursday night. It was everything I expected it to be. The dunks were dunktastic. The threes were swisheriffic. The rebounds were reboundonkulous. And Syracuse cruised to a 30+ point victory over a Division II opponent.
Despite loss of key pieces, Syracuse still confident
"Good players come and go, and they don't skip a beat," the senior guard says. "Syracuse always seems to have guys waiting in the wings ready to step up. I think that's a testament to Coach and his staff and their ability to recruit and develop players. The cupboard's never bare. It's always well-stocked."

Fans anxiously awaited the outcome of their premier performance, and the two newest members of the squad did not disappoint.

I realize that once the exhibitions are over nobody cares about them. I also realize that Syracuse still put 7,000+ fans in the stands for the game last night, and that is remarkable. But what do you guys think? Would you like to see the old rules back for exhibition games? Did the NCAA make the right move by changing the rules? Does this help prevent injuries?

Syracuse football will shuffle defensive line assignments if Bromley can't play | syracuse.com
"A lot of times when people look at games, and they’ll see a linebacker making a lot of tackles or big hits or whatever it may be, a lot of times its someone up front freeing them up, or taking care of their gap or forcing things outside," Marrone said Thursday while previewing Saturday’s visit to Big East foe Cincinnati (5-2, 1-1 conference).

Can Syracuse dare to dream to win the Big East conference? Can the SU defense recover from a bad performance against USF? Or do all the dual-threat QB's ahead on the schedule spell trouble for the Orange?

The Bearcats are led offensively by quarterback Munchie Legeaux, who has thrown for almost 1600 yards and 13 touchdowns on the season. More importantly for Legaux however, is his ability to use his feet to make plays, much like BJ Daniels of USF last week. Legaux has ran for 6 yards per carry on the season, and will likely look to run a lot against a Syracuse defense that gave up over 250 yards on the ground last week.

"As I was coming down over the hills, flying in the airplane today, it was an unbelievable experience," Mac confided back on that January day in 1991 when he’d flown back to Syracuse from Boston for a final wave after having become a Patriot. "This is the first time in all the moving we’ve done that I’m having tremendous second thoughts about whether I should leave or not."

SU’s increased offensive output has been the bright spot of the season so far. It ranked No. 90 (348.17) last season, No. 97 (322.85) in 2010 and No. 94 (330.42) in 2009, Doug Marrone’s first season as coach. The offense was near the bottom of the national barrel in Greg Robinson’s four seasons preceding Marrone.
