Re: 2/10-2/16 Game Thread Discussion

I completely agree with you. The fact that they refused to leave until the last minute and then said "Welp, we tried. It just isn't gonna work." is just a joke. They easily could have made this game happen if they wanted to.

Normally I'm always down to bash Duke, but look it is really, really bad here guys. People are abandoning cars everywhere and parts of 15-501 are a parking lot. Plus the freezing rain just started to fall on top the snow and is going to make it much, much worse. The last thing we need is somebody getting killed over a damn game. The republic will endure no Duke-UNC tonight. It took me almost 45 minutes to go 2 miles from the job to the crib. No one is punking out of anything

Hell, Duke's team bus never made it to their campus.

I get tired of the whole UNC and Duke is best rivalry in college basketball thing, is it a fantastic rivalry, absolutely, but, why is it the best, because ESPN says so?

They could have walked there in 2 hours, 3 hours if they really took their time.

I do not buy for a second a bus had a tough time getting there, the heavier the vehicle the better it moves in crappy weather. I make a commute every morning before the roads are salted and plowed so maybe I have a bit of experience the south lacks but here is a tip, drive slow! In 13 years of driving in the snowiest major city in the US I have never had a accident, it's all a matter of speed.

It really sucks that there is no UNC and Duke tonight. At least there are plenty of other games tonight.

Win or lose, I'm impressed with Syracuse. Top ranked teams don't win at the Pete, hitting these tough shots really makes me believe they are the best team in the country.

I'm calling it now, Pitt is a final four team.

Re: 2/10-2/16 Game Thread Discussion

Pitt absolutely blew this game. Their last 3 possession they just passed around the perimeter wasting time before rushing a horrible shot.

From where the wild things are!

I'm not sure they are there yet(Elite Eight in my eyes), but man, they are a good team.

Syracuse is probably still my #1 team in the nation, win or lose. I still think they are the most complete team in the nation right now.

They are passing the ball around to get the zone defense out of position, it's how you beat it. The shots have been meh, but the passing has a point to stop the zone defense of 'Cuse.


WHAT A SHOT, HOLY COW ENNIS.
