Ever since Syracuse beat Duke in a game¬†for the ages at the Dome in early February, the Orange has not played its best basketball. SU‚Äôs shooting percentage has decreased every game since February 1.¬†In Wednesday’s loss to Boston College,¬†Syracuse shot an abysmal 32 percent from the field. The Orange was extremely lucky to go 4-1 in the post-Duke span. Against Pittsburgh and NC State, SU trailed for most of the game before winning inconceivably in the final minutes. Boeheim‚Äôs team got a little lucky.

Whether it‚Äôs injuries, fatigue or a lack of motivation, SU plays down to its lower competition. This is exactly what happened against BC. The team looked like a sluggish mid-level ACC team, not an undefeated one. At this point in the season, a six-win team has no business going on the road and beating the top-ranked team in the nation. SU let that happen.

But in this year‚Äôs biggest contests, however, the Orange was always inspiring.

Tonight‚Äôs game against no. 5 Duke offers Syracuse a chance to revitalize. The last time these two teams met, C.J. Fair had 28 points on 60 percent shooting. Jeremi Grant scored 24 points and had 12 boards. Tyler Ennis tied a career high with nine assists. Trevor Cooney made every three-pointer he attempted and Rakeem Christmas finished with an astounding six blocks. SU was playing its best basketball of the season, which is something we have not seen much of lately.

Facing a very talented Blue Devils squad at Cameron Indoor presents Syracuse with a chance to return to top form. SU has shot an unbelievable 49.6 percent against ranked opposition this season. The¬†‚Äúbig‚Äù¬†game inspires this team which is an extremely important trait to posses come tournament time. The Orange knows there is no margin for error in these contests and the team raises its play.

A win tonight not only puts Syracuse in a great position in the ACC, it also gives them a chance to finish the year with momentum heading into the post season. These last five games have been largely more frustrating than entertaining for Orange fans. A victory (or even a solid performance) gives SU its gusto and confidence back, which is truly needed. Syracuse must eventually return to championship form if it wants to win an NCAA tournament title. That ascent back can start tonight.

A huge shock if the Orange can win at Duke. I have to say my money would have to go to a Duke win today. i hope otherwise but thats the reality of this Orange team. If its close don’t think they will prevail as in a few games this year. if they beat Duke they are going to need a quality effort on offense and hustle for those loose balls on the floor. Orebs and quality put backs for points. They don’t have the monkey on their back as pressure for the undefeated season is gone.Getting the ACC title is the next big goal and the top seeding for the madness period is in play.

In the past,I’ve seen some damn poor officating,but tonight was the worst that I’ve ever seen. THE WORST!

If that’s the best the ACC has to offer,I think we’d be better off if the commissioner went out and hired some high school officals to ref our games.

They friggin stunk,I have a fourteen year old grandson who could have done a better job that that group. the thing that hurt the most tis they all got paid for that lousy job.
