Saying "do you know the way to San Jose" is not clever or original Orange fans.
James Southerland dribbled more than 2 times without turning it over. Well, he almost turned it over but Christmas just happened to be there.
Christmas is looking like a monster in this game. Which means Montana is severely undermanned inside.
Everyone keeps talking about how great a 3-pointer shooter CJ Fair is because of his high percentage on few attempts. And they say he should shoot more often. Maybe his percentage his high because he only shoots when he has a good chance of making it. He's very judicious. I think in his case selection is as much a part of his excellence as his shooting skill.
Wayne Tinkle is a pretty funny name for a coach. Brian Anderson seems to be having fun saying it. But he keeps using his full name because it sounds silly to call a grown man Tinkle. I would say they mentioned Tinkle about 20 times as often as they said Boeheim.
Boeheim was positively glowing in his halftime interview. I guess with a 23 point lead you have to crack a smile, even if you are an old curmudgeon.
Nice to see DaJuan Coleman getting some playing time. And all the walkons too. Matt Lyde-Cajuste and 5 foot 10, 150 pound Nolan Hart (no relation to Jason) even got to chuck up a 3.
I actually felt badly for Montana by the end of this. They worked hard, dreamed of this their entire lives and they played their worst game at the worst time. I know Syracuse was a better, bigger, faster team, but shooting 20% from the field is just a poor performance.
Great win for SU. It will have no carryover to the next game, which will start at 0-0 again. But if confidence was a factor, winning by 47 certainly helps boost that.
SU may have gotten a break by getting the weaker opponent in the next round but Cal is certainly good enough to win if SU plays at less than their best.
So Seth Davis wore an orange wig on TV to pay up for picking Montana to beat Syracuse. This is one of the dumbest things ever. The guy gets paid to give his opinion and make predictions. It doesn't mean he hates Syracuse or has no "respect" he just made a knee-jerk guess that Syracuse was going to lose. This is a total non-story and he shouldn't have dignified it with anything more than an acknowledgement of how off his prediction was.
