Syracuse Defeats NC State (Somehow): Hope You've Got Obamacare, Orange Fans...

This is just getting silly now...

Rich Barnes

Are we going to do it like this from now on? Will every game be a heart attack-enducing, living nightmare of frustration only to end in exuberant celebration with what little emotional strength you have left?

If so…fine. I think we can all live with that. Just, you know, a little head's up would be nice. We all have lives and families and people who love us. Thanks, guys.

The Syracuse Orange should have once against lost, this time to the N.C. State Wolfpack. They trailed most of the game, looked sluggish the entire evening and refused to take any kind of momentum they were granted. And yet, with seconds remaining and the perfect season seemingly over….something…happened. Again.

Despite the fact that the Flop Karma Gods were getting us back. Despite the fact that Tyler Ennis played terribly in the closing moments of a game for the first time. Despite the fact that no one seemed able to put us over. Despite the fact that NC State had us dead to rights...

We won. 25-0. Put it in the books. On to the next.

Analysis coming. Until then...
