    Syracuse got wipped the game wasn't even close. From a team ranked (18) that was a horrible game.

    syracuse hasn't really been playing well at all period. they've had their asses handed to them in the past couple weeks. big time.

    it's what i expected of them quite honestly. last year the kids weren't THAT spectacular, it was all carmelo, with them doing stuff occassionally on the side.

    edelin is still out.. but there aren't many teams scared/worried about his presence to begin with.

    other than that.. warrick is the only player on that team having a sensational year. i expect them to be so much better next year w/ the freshman coming in.

    he wasn't that big of a factor last year when carmelo ran the show.

    Yes he was. I didn't know 15, 8, and a steal and block per game wasn't a big factor.

    But he was a big factor. Him and McNamara were huge factors.

    First on defense. Him in that long zone Syracuse played. And on offense, teams couldn't focus 100% on Carmelo because McNamara and Warrick would just kill them.
