Sullinger finally played like a man against a team with equal talent. Great to see. Buford is awful, but they did get a little from him. Syracuse pulled the Duke-style flops out of the playbook when they were getting abused inside. Gotta hope Buford wakes up here eventually.

Bucks have to attack the zone, have some sets for Sully and Thomas near the FT line and go to work.

Also, Buford can't be retarded.
I may be Thad Matta. :)

That was a pretty terrible game to watch. Too many "scratching my head" fouls out there. Anyways, glad OSU continues to play well. Buford had some positive moments in the second half. Hated to see Craft foul out at the end, which made me nervous.

You think they flopped a lot? Disagree there. Thought the officiating overall was awful.

Reading the comments on ESPN. Cuse fans saying that they got screwed by the refs and would have won an evenly officiated game.

Note: ESPN comments section is always good for a laugh. A lot of people saying stupid shit on it no matter what team they are rooting for.

Hubert Davis is saying on ESPN right now that whoever plays the Bucks in the Final Four will double Jared. I say good let Thomas make them pay.

LOL, what? Kansas nor UNC will be easy. Come on.

We can beat both, but both can beat us as well...

Congrats on a great season for Syracuse. Nothing to be ashamed of with all that happened this year. Good luck next year.

They have a point to an extent. Officiating was bad both ways.

Did you read this thread? You'd think syracuse would've shot 20 more free throws than OSU.

If you double Sully, Thomas will be open and then whoever comes to help out on him (if they do) will leave Smith/Buford/Craft open.

Good luck with that.

There were at least 3 or 4 offensive fouls that were pretty clearly flops. Grown men, especially athletes like Syracuse has, don't go flying when DeShaun Thomas bumps them. The first one on Sullinger was tragic. The officiating was pretty bad most of the game though, both ways.

Shout out to Lenzelle Smith this tournament. I pretty sure everyone who scouted Ohio State begged for him to shoot the ball. And now he is making free throws to go with his 3's!!!!!

It won't matter. North Carolina, and Kansas are over rated. Ohio St. should win easily.

When guys are big and they are lowering their shoulder into the defender's midsection while powering forward...they're gonna call a foul.

Where can I watch the post game celebration at? If it's not over yet. Since CBS ended their broadcast shortly after the final buzzer.
