Syracuse @ Georgetown???
who does everyone like?? Georgetown with a point and a half at home or syracuse coming off their first loss in a long while..will the orangemen lose two in a row??

My initial lean would go to Cuse... But will definately look into this matchup a little closer before making a play! Both good teams should be a good game.Comment -
1st reaction was cuse but im not even close to ready to calling it a playComment -
I'm leaning Towards the Orangemen. Their length and the zone should give Georgetown some problemsComment -
Both teams are coming into this game after losing to sub par teams. I think both will come out defensively focused.. going with the under.Comment -

leaning Syracuse +1.5Comment -
The under is solid. But just wait to see if Lang will play it. If he does than fade.Comment -
Should go right down to the wire. I think Gtowns ability to score in a variety of ways gives them the edge.Comment -
what do you guys think of teasing syracuse and the badgers?Comment -
what will it mean if cuse win and what will it mean if hoyas win..i think of hoyas win then they sit comfortably heading into march madness but if they lose they will have to get their shit together throughout the end of the season and wont be as comfortable heading in...this is also a big motivation game for the hoyas..only problem is cuse play with as much passion or even moreComment -
hoyas still have to play at west virginia and at louisvilleComment -

I like Syracuse to win straight up, but I'd tease them to be sure. Syracuse +6.5, Wisconsin +6.5, & Pittsburgh +10.5 looks good.Comment -

teasers always look good but overall they suck, really not worth it....just my humble opinion but on good picks you dont need the points and on bad 1s they usually not enough...glComment -
It may better to wait until HT to make a play here. Since it's potentially a close game, if the 1H is won by more than 7 points, one may take the 1H loser to win the 2H.Comment -
Thats one of the many successes to knocking down easy winners. 1ST HALF LOSERS always come back and outscore their opponents in the 2nd halfOriginally posted by WilforthComment -
if it's on national television go with the Hoyas, the play out there minds on national t.v., good dayComment -
No pun intended, does national television improve their talent?Originally posted by THEGREAT30Comment -
this game obviously is going to be televised.Comment -
IMO talent is only evidenced when combined with focus
so if they focus better at home on TV then I would say it does improve their talent
going from memory of the last game and it will be biased since it cost me a profitable day
gtown started out hot as snot from the outside but after a few misses got gunshy
they were completely unable to get the ball into the paint which eventually lead to them getting perimeter passes stolen
which led to easy points for syracuse,starting the snowball
awhile back I read thompson talking about how his team is mature and has good chemistry
(might have been one of the things that lead me to like them that day)
one of the keys for gtown in this game has to be to find a way to get the ball down low
after the game my buddy said to me all they did was stand and pass the ball to each other on the outside
and I had to agree,it was one of the weirdest things I have ever seen in a game
I am opposite of most I would lean to the home team in this one
I don't think gtown will be afraid to go to the paint on their own floor
and the way the refs called the first game favored the home team IMBO and would expect the same in this one
syracuse had 9 fouls called on them in the first game to gtowns 20
now maybe that's just because they were the stronger teamComment -
Someone noted it earlier and I agree: under 144 would be my play if I got involved in this game, which I probably won't.Comment -
prob a game to stay away fromComment -
gtown
I like the Hoyas here because they shoot drastically better at home. They shot 38 percent from behind the line at cuse but at home against nova and duke they shot over 52 and 46 percent. At home against SH and Rutgers they shot 64 percent and 56 percent. They shot 21 threes against cuse last time so if they shoot 45 percent or better, I think they win this game.
28 free throws for the orange in the last game only 11 for gtown. At home, I don’t think that disparity happens again.

GtownComment -
half time for me glComment -
Take Syracues because they are upset from the lose on Sat. They R going to come out running at G-Town Syracuse by 4+

should stay away but im takin the orangeComment -
might change their mindset or effort. of course it doesnt change their talent but thats not to say that these types of things can't effect a game.Originally posted by WilforthComment -
G-Town (reverse jinx in effect)Comment -
The cuse will winComment -
tough one to callComment -
Goergetown wins. sizeComment -
Cuse lights it up tonight. Speed KillsComment -
this is stupid to bet this game for reasons other than making it interesting. both are top teams. this is a dumb bet....that said- im on the cuse for a few bucks
NOBODY knows whos gonna win- despite the fact that half of us are gonna be right. this game will be decided on the courtComment
