SU hosts Marquette in season's finale

AEM posted 3/8/2008 from theorangesports.blogspot.com

Could this finally be the game that decides the fate of the Syracuse men's basketball season? It's something that a lot of us have been thinking about, isn't it? The Orange (18-12, 8-9 in the Big East) takes on #21 Marquette (21-7, 11-6 in the Big East) in what is the final game of the season for both teams and what could easily be the make or break game for HC Jim Boeheim's squad.

SU beats Marquette and now head to the Big East Tournament

AEM posted 3/9/2008 from theorangesports.blogspot.com

Well Syracuse fans, it is time to... WAIT some more! The Orange (19-12, 9-9 in the Big East) did what they had to do by beating #21 Marquette (22-8, 11-7 in the Big East) 87-72. And while this game is probably 99% of the road that the team had to follow in order to get themselves into the NCAA Tourney, I think that only by winning a game in New York City next week will they seal up their fate.

UK-Marquette early thoughts

Posted 3/17/2008 on Sidelines

Early thoughts on a UK-Marquette matchup Thursday in Anaheim: It's a better matchup for Kentucky in that Marquette is a perimeter-oriented team that doesn't boast studs down low. Billy Gillispie referred to the Golden Eagles as having good "role players" underneath, which means the opponent doesn't have a Roy Hibbert or Tyler Hansbrough. That said, Marquette does have excellent ...
