I really thought syracuse was going to take this in the 1st quarter. After the half it seemed like the D was sloppy as hell and werent covering the backside pipe at all and hopkins exploited it unmercilessly. Face-offs were a huge facter that the orangemen didnt pull away with too many false starts and illegal procedures. Another Factor that altered the outcome was the refs didnt cut them any breaks. All in all very disapointing loss my sympathys go out to all the seniors especially bliss, banks, and springer they were the heart and soul of this team. Powell, Nee, Crockett and the defense really have to step up next year otherwise its going to be another up-and-down season for the cuse.
