Big game tonight.  I am surprised we haven\'t heard any chatter from Booztravlr.  I assume he is pregaming!?!?

LET\'S GO HUSKIES!

Damn. Had some chances tonight but couldn\'t get it done when it counted. That 9-0 run late in the second all but sealed the deal for UConn. Looks like I owe you two some beers! Hopefully you\'ll make it out East for some shows NickNels. BennyBoomers, I\'m sure we will cross paths in the near future. Hopefully Cuse and UConn play each other in the Big East tourny again this year, where we\'ve owned you the past 2 years. Good luck until then.

Cheers to the best conference in all of college basketball!

F Duke, go UNC! I can\'t stand Paulus (Syracuse native).

Hopefully I\'ll get a chance to head back East sooner rather than later, and when I do I\'ll make sure to hit you up for some PBR tall boys Booztravlr.  

I will give \'Cuse a lot of credit in this game.  I thought they were just going to give it up after we got up about 10 late in the game, but they didn\'t.  And Johnny Flynn!  Are you kidding me?  He looked for calm and poised when he hit those clutch 3\'s late in the game.  He definetly looks very mature for a freshman.  I was even a little nervous when he got that last 3 away.

I always like it when I can talk shit about other teams and sing UCONN\'s praises, but in all honesty I am not a Syracuse hater.  I\'ve always been an Orange fan and really like the UCONN/\'Cuse competitive rivalry.  It\'s almost always close, hard fought, and still classy (which probably has a lot to do with Boeheim and Calhoun).

Only teams I really don\'t like are Pittsburg, BC, and of course Duke.

Great game Saturday! The Dome was packed (+31,300). Big road test tonight at Louisville. Hopefully they can carry some momentum from the Georgetown game. Greene needs to break out of his road game slump and take care of business tonight.

Anyone know a link I could use to watch the Big East Tournament games online? espn360.com doesn\'t look to be offering it (at least in Syracuse). In the past we\'ve used out 4\' projector to watch it at work which makes for a solid afternoon. Thanks if you can help!

If USD can somehow beat UConn that would be just so sweet!

As a devout hater of the Connecticut Huskies, allow me to say, GOOD FUCKING RIDDANCE!!!

Although, I must admit I am somewhat sad to not get the chance to see their season end at the hands of my UCLA Bruins.

syracuse blew a 22-point halftime lead last night to lose in the quarter-finals of the NIT tournament against UMASS, at home.  What a pathetic way to finish the season.  It was painful to watch.

booze, were you there?
