Orange Slices 2/24

Saw a few things around that id like to point out, and also ill do my obligatory st. john's preview in the same post. (Tough economic times, gotta save server space....)


First off, Mr "Unforced Eric" Devendorf had some wonderful words of wisdom about the Big East:

"Nobody's an easy team in the Big East," Devendorf said. "Anybody can beat anybody. We've got to play like we approach every game. We've got to play hard."

Anybody can beat anybody, huh? so in other words you are one of the anybodies, and a random chick off the street is the other anybody. Way to work in a nice bitchslapping reference. How about you focus on basketball?

Syracuse(7-7 Big East)
at
St Johns(4-10 Big East)

Overall records unimportant.

Lineups:
St Johns
Pg-Boothe
Sg-Horne
SF-Kennedy
PF-Burrel
C-Evans

Syracuse
PG-Flynn
SG-Devendorf
SF-Harris
PF-Jackson
C-Onuaku

Last time out: Syracuse lost a heartbreaker to villanova at the carrier dome.
St Johns Def. Seton Hall at home.

If Syracuse Expects to Win:
1.Keep a leash on devendorf- every time he turns it over, sit him. one turnover turns into another with this kid.
2. Feed the ball into the post- Jackson and onuaku combined for 12 points against villanova, they're not getting many shots.
3. Give ongenaet a chance and make the defense guard everyone.

Game's on. I rest my case.
