Pitt still hasn't beaten a tourney team.

2/12/2014 9:13:19 PM

I wanna know what that feels like.

2/12/2014 9:13:34 PM

Syracuse provides the entertainment this season

2/12/2014 9:14:22 PM

Feels good. Even better when your team does it in a conference or NCAA tourney game.

I hope to on day experience it as a State fan.

2/12/2014 9:14:51 PM

Apparently the next Syracuse game is at NC State

I wanna know what it feels like to be the guy who makes the shot. I think the closest I can get is gambling long odds.

2/12/2014 9:19:23 PM

Pitt likely will still be choking on Ennis' cock by the time we play them.

2/12/2014 11:52:48 PM

they just win.

2/12/2014 11:53:15 PM

So will Pitt jump six spots in the polls?

2/13/2014 12:39:45 AM

last few weeks of acc play for unc, duke and wake are similar in opponent quality.

[Edited on February 13, 2014 at 9:19 AM. Reason : .]

2/13/2014 9:12:26 AM

^^ no but duke should get a nice bump. They beat Pitt in Pittsburgh too and Pitt just played Cuse tight.

I say put Duke #1 since they only lost at Cuse and would've won in Vegas' eyes on a neutral court. Also retroactively give them the 1999 title.... Just because.

2/13/2014 9:34:42 AM

you must live a frustrating life

2/13/2014 10:16:59 AM

Why don't we have a Syracuse thread going yet? We're playing the #1 team in two days.

2/13/2014 3:40:55 PM

sNOw

2/13/2014 3:56:11 PM

How on earth is it possible that UConn, in the AAC, is playing more ranked team games in conference (8) this year than in most years in the Big East.

Granted, there is some absolute shit also in that conference like Houston and Rutgers (lol Big 10), but that's what you get when half is basically mid-major.

^^^ I'm marrying a Duke grad, so obviously I don't hate them too much. Most of what I post about Duke/Cuse is tongue in cheek

2/14/2014 8:10:09 AM

so, San Diego State is a really good team

it's a sign of the times that most if not all of their good players are transfers

Angelo Chol (Arizona)
Josh Davis (NCSU/Tulane)
James Johnson (UVa)
JJ O'Brien (Utah)
Dwayne Polee (St Johns)
Xavier Thames (Wazzu)
Parker U'u (Hartford)


are you listening, Gottfried???

2/14/2014 3:42:03 PM

Academically it is not possible to get so many transfers in

2/14/2014 3:48:39 PM

I like Raleigh, but it's not quite the transfer destination that San Diego is.

2/14/2014 3:53:22 PM

Meeks has a nice shot for a guy that seems so impossibly dumb.

2/15/2014 1:12:06 PM

Bazz > anyone

UConn should have a pretty good resume. One bad loss but a ton of good wins. Steal one at UL or beat Cincy and they could still be a 3-4 seed.

[Edited on February 15, 2014 at 2:28 PM. Reason : First time since 2002 Memphis was swept by a team. not a great conf but not cusa either]

2/15/2014 2:27:29 PM

Also UNC doing what they always do and improving as year goes on. Dangerous team come March.

2/15/2014 2:39:20 PM

I have never seen so many consistently missed layups

2/15/2014 3:03:38 PM

Pitt is who we thought they were

2/15/2014 3:05:53 PM

They're pretty good to have sucked this bad and still be within 6 3.

[Edited on February 15, 2014 at 3:09 PM. Reason : Obviously off Carolina. LOL]

2/15/2014 3:07:35 PM

Pitt blowing chance after chance

2/15/2014 3:13:55 PM

how many opportunities does pitt wanna squander? pathetic

2/15/2014 3:14:14 PM

Yes, I officially despise Pittsburgh. This makes me sick.

2/15/2014 3:14:27 PM

Tokoto is terrible at every single thing in basketball except dunking

2/15/2014 3:15:07 PM

which means he will continue to be looked at as an awesome basketball player

thanks a lot, Vine

2/15/2014 3:20:05 PM

Virginia and Cuse on a collision course for the biggest game the ACC's seen in many many years.

2/15/2014 3:21:58 PM

Lol

2/15/2014 3:59:33 PM

as crazy as it sounds, Earl is right. that game will be huge. current combined record of 46-5 (24-1). will be 52-5 (30-1) when they play.

winner takes the regular season title

[Edited on February 15, 2014 at 4:16 PM. Reason : d]

2/15/2014 4:14:53 PM

much bigger than the Syracuse Duke game the other night

2/15/2014 4:15:04 PM

eh, Duke was #17 at the time

UVA will be top-10 when they play Syracuse

2/15/2014 4:17:35 PM

VT will upset them on Tuesday night

2/15/2014 4:20:15 PM

http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/standings

North Carolina 7-4 17-7
Pittsburgh 8-5 20-6

Why is UNC over PITT in the standings?

2/15/2014 4:44:24 PM

7/11 is a better percentage than 8/13

Pitt is sliding pretty bad at this point but they will stay in the Top 50 RPI which will only bolster UNC's resume that much more in March. I think UNC is headed towards a 6 seed if they manage one more big win (either Syracuse or Duke).

I don't know what's happening with Pitt though.

Look at their resume

Where is the marquis win? I don't get why their RPI is so high.

RPI can be skewed by playing teams in the 100-200 range instead of 200-330. I'm guessing that's what Pitt did OOC.

2/15/2014 6:00:17 PM

speaking of which, poor Herb

he finally grows a pair of balls and lines up a good OOC schedule. who'd have known Marquette, UNLV, Creighton, Miami, and Texas Tech would all suck ass?

2/15/2014 6:04:01 PM

they have an rpi in the 30s with 20 wins

thats about right. theyre in danger of falling onto the bubble, but with 68 teams it's really fucking hard to miss the tournament if you win 24 games and play in a major conference

2/15/2014 6:07:22 PM

Wow, how lame
