[QUOTE="CuseJacket, post: 294890, member: 274"] Well I'll get things started with my apparently controversial opinion. I'll conservatively say I watched 28+ games each of Syracuse and GT this year, fwiw. White was on fire, no doubt. Best shooting performance so far this year. The difference in this game vs. the last against GT is the space he was allowed to shoot and release. To me it was largely driven by poor awareness by GT. Today's game White was more open than I remember him in any ACC game this year. We helped too far off of him and were desperately trying to close to no avail. Jax in 1 on 1 could not guard him. Syracuse was able to get into the lane easier today than at GT, which allowed the step in 3 barrage. Obviously poor timing for Syracuse to connect at this clip, but once they got rolling, we did little to impair their rhythm. Our transition D was nonexistant, exacerbated by turnovers on offense where the Orange could get out and run. Syracuse is really good at home. They beat Duke, UVA, FSU, Miami, Wake, etc. Only team to beat them in ACC play was Louisville in OT. Losing there is almost to be expected. At the end of the day this counts as 1 loss, whether by 2 points or 29. If we can swing together a couple ACCT wins, who knows what'll happen next Sunday. Optimistically I hope this helps us recalibrate and play with nothing to lose. I fear we looked slow and out of order today due to the magnitude and pressure of the game. [/QUOTE]
