eball Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 (edited) See I think your better off being an 10/11/ seed then the 8/9 because your going to have to play the one seed in the second round. The difference between the quality of opponents from /6/7 seed compared to a 9 seed is minimal at best. Yup. Generally speaking, getting an 8/9 seed is the kiss of death. If I'm a fringe team I want the 10/11 seed with a reasonable chance at a 2nd round upset if I win the first game. That's even more true this year, because I don't think all of the #2/3 seeds are going to be that formidable.

Bray Wyatt Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 who are these announcers? The guy goes Miami is rolling at the break and it is 12-9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommonCents Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Cuse came out flat. Slowly waking up, stop turning over the ball! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bray Wyatt Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Cuse came out flat. Slowly waking up, stop turning over the ball! Miami shooting lights out, even banking in some garbage shots, they got all the bounces it seemed and Gillon needs to take more care of the ball and start scoring. We tighten things up I think we will be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Good game; tough loss. I thought Gillon would drain another buzzer beater. Hate the uncertainty of the bubble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 The selfish part of me is glad Miami won, so the Heels have a chance to avenge that turd they dropped in Florida earlier this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section122 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 he had time to put up a more confident shot, he forced it....he had the look For sure. He did the same weird pump fake he did in the Duke game except he had more time and more space. Tough loss. I won't be mad if they miss the tourney. This team can beat anyone so it would be exciting to watch but they can lose to anyone too. One of the strangest teams in memory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordio Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Not sure what is going to happen Sunday. I think one thing that hurts cuse is the god awful road record. This is a weird year. The Bubble is about as soft as I have ever seen it. I can never remember talking about so mnay 13/14 loss teams on the bubble. There is only one team that made the tournament as an at large with at least 14 losses & that was Georgia when they went 16-14. Their schedule was an anomoly though that year in that I believe 27 out of their 30 opponents were within the top 100 RPI. I don't know, my gut says they are out, but I thought they were out last year too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Poojer Posted March 9, 2017 Author Share Posted March 9, 2017 I really want them to make it so I have more syracuse basketball to watch this season....that would be a killer match-up for them, but I'll take anything we can get!

GO ORANGE!!!! That would be a great matchup for them. Xavier has been in a spiral ever since Sumnter(sp) went down. I believe in their last 9 games the only 2 wins they have are against Depaul. They are going to get drilled tonight against Butler at the Garden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
