Got GT tonight in Atlanta. If we can't beat them we need to just stay home and fugget about this season.

They'll probably cancel or postpone the game because there is snow and ice everwhere down here!

The uNC team is already in the ATL. They may have trouble getting to the arena. Better get started walking to MARTA now though.

That's not snow and ice Geneh....that was just the SU bus getting into Winston-Salem.

Next time, how about keeping the yankee weather up in yankee territory, will you?

I hope the Deacs can hang with the Cuse. A win by Wake, even at home, would be a step closer to a "Tourney Win" for sure.

Wake in Winston ain't easy jonvi. JB better have the troops ready to play. They'll all be wearing tie dyed colors and screaming and playing that fight song over and over and over and over...

What...no cheerleaders? No Crazies? Just a f'n fight song. Please....I guess it's best to hide the cheerleaders and them punk assed kids think they messin with my boys....they are about to get a lesson in JB.

 

[geneh_33]

Wake, NC State, Duke and UNC are always tough to play in their buildings. Good luck, Jonvi.

They'll have that Deacon mascot riding out on his Harley jonvi. I love going to Joel. It usually is a good atmosphere. And yes, they have some good looking cheerleaders too.

You want to see an intro....go to the Yum Center. UofL does it up and is in one of the finest...most comfortable basketball venues I have been to. The video and light show in their intro brings a chill to ya.

Actually it was those two Southern chicks sitting next to you...LOL

Seems to me everyone is focusing on Saturday's game when tonight's game has not yet been won. Would not surprise me to see Syracuse get a wake up call the 1st half and have to come from behind those last 5 minutes to seal the deal. Won't be the first time Syracuse sleep-walked the 1st 30 minutes of a game. Boeheim is just 46.....it's those games that wear on him llllLOL

Definitely. Should have their hands full with a Wake Forest team who has yet to lose at home. (Although, they also have yet to play a great team at home, depending on your opinion of NC and NC st)

A team that has a win streak in their own house does not like to give it up. Florida beat a mediocre Arkansas team in their house ending a streak that went back to early last season and that was one tough game. Unless Cooney and Ennis get hot from 3 point land early, I see this very close to the last 5 minutes. Syracuse is just so big and physical under the hoop, they do wear on teams, so the last 5 minutes is usually good for them. IMO, most underrated player is Grant who I think will be a very good pro. Losing Colman was big even though he didn't play that many minutes, he still was able to wear out folks. Keita and Christmas are just big guys. The o-boards usually belong to Syracuse; especially late in the game.

That's what bothers me most about a game AT Syracuse. Hopefully there won't be that many boards to be had because Duke is hitting all their shots.

I was wondering how games in the SE would go tonight.

 

[hokiehi21]

I think the game is still gonna happen, just not gonna show it on TV. Guess i'm stuck watching VT-BC.
