I bet these guys still argue touch fouls though.
Looks like a lot of empty seats to me. If you can't even sell out your stadium when you are undefeated and ranked #1 then you have problems.

Wow, talk about reaching. For your sake, I hope you were being facetious. but just in case, How many #1 ranked undefeated teams get 36,000 people in the house for a regular season game?

How'd that football attendance go? MSU can sell out a 75k seat stadium for football, can you even say the same? Want to make this a fair argument? Pick what you think to be Syracuse's biggest game so far on ESPN and compare it to MSU's game against Michigan on ESPN. that would be a argument or smack I will accept.
Posted from my mobile device using the CSNbbs App
SU cant sellout a 75,000 seat stadium for fb, but how many other programs are going to regularly pack 30,000 fans for a regular season bb game either.

It's a dubious distinction to be sure. But it is an ACC milestone.
Really Bit? You really think SU was the first #1 to lose to an unranked team? Maybe this year.
ESPN announcers just happened to mention other #1 teams to lose to unranked teams last night. They mentioned #1 Duke losing to Virginia Tech not long after VT joined the Acc as one of the games. I was thinking it would be good for the team to get 1 loss out of the way, and thought it would come at Duke. Now I hope the kids can pull out a win there. Wishful thinking, I know, especially the way the team has been playing lately.

LOL sorry 36k fans in a half Dome configuration doesn't meet Houston standards

cuse, your reading comprehension skills were lacking when you read my post. I said Syracuse lost to the worst unranked team ever to defeat a team ranked #1. That is a fact. ESPiN showed the other unranked teams that defeated a #1 team, and BC was by far the worst team to accomplish that feat.
Pay attention to the small details, dude. It will help you avoid confusion in the future.
