and dont think Boeheim didn't see how terrible Kuksiks is at handling the baul. Expect the zone to come out and pressure Kuk and make him make quick decisions with the bal.

With McMillian in the lineup, we beat USC. He would have been that extra ball handler on the floor which would have rendered the press useless. If Cuse tries the same thing, I'd imagine they'll see plenty of Jamelle.

true, I forgot about Jamelle not playing against USC until I saw him on campus today.

and Mulli...congratulations, you just got Boateng eaten. Next up is Taylor Rhode. 1.2 million is now the cost.

Wouldn't shock me to see Syracuse go to a press if they get down, but with a lead I'd imagine Boeheim just sits back in the zone and hopes ASU shoots over it.

Lax is right though, Flynn is a matchup nightmare for ASU. His closest comparisons as a player of ASU opponents this year would probably be Jerome Randle from Cal and Curtis Jerrells of Baylor, both of which tore up the Devils.

We're of course assuming ASU gets by Temple, and if I weren't such a homer, I might be picking the upset in that one.

Why did we run off Ned Wulk again?

Before we look at Cuse.. Temple needs to be dealt with....

Keep Christmas in check (of course no easy task) and the Devils win, let Christmas go off, and it could get interesting....

Ultimatly the Devils will either win by 15+ or lose by 3 or less.... I think they will win...

Syracuse... Not going to lie, when I realized that ASU was going to be in the same bracket as NC AND OKLAHOMA, seeing Syracuse to boot just plain sucked...Now for the bright side, I have watched Syracuse play over 25 times the past two seasons and 2 things stick out more than any other:

1. Johnny Flynn is a BEAST.. nothing knew
2. A good matchup zone can really derail the Orangemen more thanany other kind of Defense, and ASU excells at it.

Another fact working in ASU's favor is their ability to slow the game down.. If Syacuse doesn't get into a rythem offensively, their defense suffers, and that may very well be their downfall....

I am not predicting that game until Saturday, but as far as Friday goes

ASU-67
Temple- 51

deal, both avatars have to be within the bounds of reason though okay.

can I get out of this now?
