Good stuff jonvi, I'm thinking Pitt needs to make those bunnies they missed last time the two played, they seemed to have gone into a funk since then and the whole team is missing layups regularly.

Zanna has been dealing with a ankle for a few games, and Pitt has got crushed on the glass since he's been injured, although some regression by their PF's (Young and Artis has been a factor too). He needs a double double tonight at least for Pitt to win.

Cuse's length at the SF and Guard spots is a huge advantage, but inside everything evens out.

Ok my last post before tip off. I'm sticking with my original prediction of Pitt by 6 no matter who's hurt or who shows up. I just don't have a good feeling and haven't since I looked ahead at the schedule weeks ago. I was in Fla basking in the sun a few weeks ago and ran into some guys from Cincy. We talked hoops and I told them 'Cuse would get to 23-0 and lose at Pitt. They told me I was nuts , meaning Pitt sucks. I'm not buying. As previously stated by me the Orange need a loss. We have to get it over with and move on. They aren't going undefeated this yr so lets end this nonsense. Have fun gents and we'll weigh in tomorrow.

There is good reason to be concerned. Pitt has putt a stop to a many of SU's streaks. But I really believe SU has this one...even without Keita.

Pitt would much rather play a slow game and that plays to SU's depth issues. I'm all for a clock killing game and may the best shooter win.

I don't want a fast transition game where SU must decide to foul or give up the slam at Pitt. This is one nasty place to ball.

The Orangemen needed that Cooney 3 to get a little momentum back before the half.

Cooney is going to have to get those 3's going. Cuse is struggling.

If they can hang on and win this one everybody will shut up about them not having a signature win.

cant argue bud, its why they arent higher in the polls, and arent respected, but they can play

OOC doesn't matter for an ACC team. They will get theirs in conference, you can be assured of that.

I just don't understand how teams can schedule garbage like they do in the out of conference. nd is guilty of it too. I thought about buying season tickets this yr but f that. they literally have 4 home games id like to see. they have over 10 against complete shit.
