Syracuse in trouble

[KipsBayEagle]

Its early, but they look off and asheville looks like they have their number.

[Beer Brats Bags]

Glad I picked them out round 3 at least... Kansas state might bet them if other make it through this matchup

[brewcity77]

Is this finally the year? At some point, you know 16/1 is gonna happen.

[Chicago_inferiority_complexes]

Hard to tell whether I want them to lose. If they lose it can be a nice miserable way for them to end their BE career. But also, if they lose it will be used by Big ? types to mock the performance of the BE for this tournament.

+1 
I went back and changed a bunch of my picks with Syracuse in various pools when I heard Fab Melo was out.

[NoCheese]

I did the same with my brackets but I had the loosing out in next round.

I can't stand Syracuse being from the Northeast. I was raised to despise them. Would love to see them go out now!

It couldn't happen to a better bunch of guys as far as I'm concerned.

Syracuse is going to end up winning, but they looked awful and didn't deserve to win.

Matt Dickey shoots 38% for the year from 3 and goes 1-12 overall and 1-8 from 3.

Now Syracuse can't even break a UNC-asheville press. 

[mu_hilltopper]

Syracuse up 6 with 1:56 to play .. looks safe.

[forgetful]

Refs absolutely gift 2 pts to SU.

[RideMyBuycks]

Lane violation. bad call

[QuetteHoops]

That was a terrible call on the lane violation...and is Syracuse immune to goaltending? Asheville got jobbed on a call earlier

[forgetful]

WOW now the ball goes out off SU and they give it to SU.

[RideMyBuycks]

again. yikes.

[QuetteHoops]

Ashville should feel cheated

[National Champs]

The refs must have Syracuse going deep in their brackets.

[forgetful]

UNC Asheville should be up by 1 instead of down by 3.

[forgetful]

These refs should be banned from any other tournament games.  This is why a 16 can't win against a 1.  They have to beat both the team and the refs.

[ken8406]

the refs suck at this game. such Bull$h!t

[Les Nessman]

Did anybody notice that Syracuse has 18 players on their roster. Is that some kind of record? Does Boeheim just give random students uniforms and bring them on the trip as community service? What gives?

Intimidation factor. But they are "the deepest team in the tourney" I guess.

[LAZER]

The lane violation was technically right, but that out of bounds on the inbounds was terrible

Disagree.  He was fouled as he tipped the ball out.  The ref didn't call the foul.  Had the ref awarded the ball to Ashville, that would have been the biggest wrong of the 3 possibilities, foul, out on SU, out on Ash.

[mu_hilltopper]

Question about the lane violation .. The FT shooter can't leave the line until the ball hits the rim.  Is there a rule that the 5th man on D can't either?  (That's the only way the call would have been correct)

[MattyWarrior]

Not
