No problemo fellas. Glad we've been the most consistent team from the start of the Big East to have built the conference (while you were building CUSA) so now you have a place to play. But we'll take our "stench" and go.

And what are you guys, thugs, mugs or wanksters? And when you play Xavier again should I bring my knife.

Ottoman...that CUSA we built was pretty strong...Marq, UC, UL and USF all were in the top 8 of the BE in the final BB standings...2 of the 3 co-BE champs in football were also from CUSA.

MAYBE you will have success like UC had switching conferences...but you WILL become second fiddle to the Carolina lead ACC basketball teams that dominate the ACC.

Very mature mocking UC basketball yet Cincinnati has more NCAA National Championships than you, more final fours and a higher winning % in the NCAA tournament than Syracuse. Cincinnati went through one of the toughest rebuilds in recent memory and yet we still compete well with the "Mighty Syracuse" in one of their best BB seasons ever. Remember...

71-68 - Cincinnati gives Syracuse second loss in Big East semifinal

Just a side note because you when Syracuse failed to step up after the Toledo football game Toledo ended the year going 8-1...Karma bit Cuse and they ended the year 2-6.

Toledo guys...I'll leave some extra Prep H for you guys too!

Instead of discussing the issue it always bogs down into this...it is usually the same little group of butt hurt fans.

Cinci, USF, BE newbies....and the BB onlies

Melo consistently played too low in the zone and conceded the jumper. In the second half, SU turned up the pressure, Wright played scared, and SU got back in the game. However, the hole in the zone at the free throw line was still there. UC just couldn't make the pass.

On offense, Cuse needs someone to contribute to help DW out. BTW, he should have been conference player of the year. He clearly was the best player at MSG. Why Triche gets as many minutes as he does is a headscratcher? He is clearly a weak link. Dumb decision after dumb decision. Anyway, against man, SU will score some points. Their wings can take most guys off the dribble and get inside. Against zone, they need someone else to step up. DW can't shoot all the jumpers. The wings have to make some shots to keep the defense honest or it will be an early exit.

In short, I can still see SU making a deep run in the tourney. But, someone, anyone, has to help DW out. If the rely on DW like they did at MSG, they will get bounced early.

The hole at the FT line is always there the key was to make Cincy shoot it from the FT line. It is not an easy dunk and not a hurtful 3. Not sure how you can say Cincy exploited Cuse at the FT line when they were 8/10 at one point from 3. The issue was everyone abandoned the shooters to guard the FT line. It was self-destructive. A good zone should not give open 3's or dunks. I would let Gates shoot jumpers all day and if he scores 65 points so be it.

Good luck in the ACC Syracuse.

BTW for you conspiracy and hater guys...Boeheim didn't know until yesterday

Or you can dismiss it that he was lying and Cuse was hiding the info.

I have no problem with the additions of teams in 2005. However, to claim that CUSA built the teams currently in the Big East as if they had never played well before CUSA and giving CUSA for developing USF, is preposterous!

USF hoops is purely a product of the Big East. They were nothing before CUSA, during CUSA and until this season, were nothing in the Big East.

Louisville, Cincy and Marquette are all doing well, but their history pre-dates the Big East and CUSA and since they've been around a while in the Big East, CUSA has nothing to do with their current performance, again, a product of the Big East. DePaul, lost a step, but they are rebuilding.

I'm not slamming CUSA, Memphis stayed strong and Houston is getting back where they belong. You can credit CUSA for them, and SMU.

Seems like SYR wonthe Pinstripe at Yankee Stadium. How did Cincy do repping the conferences in the BCS games. We'll that just too bad, a one or two point loss is nothing to be asamed of in FB. WHAT? They got blowed out? My GOlly. That sucks.

CIncy give SYR SECOND loss. Wait didn't SYR play Cincy in Cincy without Fab. You mean to tell me SYR came to Cincy's house and busted them up without Fab. In their own house? You kiddin me.

For CIncy's time in the BE all I can say is SYR took care of business against Cincy- even when we were high on weed.

Cincy's last title was in 1962 50 years ago. Their last two final fours were 1963 and 1992. SYR has played in two national title games since 1992. (1996 against Kentucky and 2003 against kansas). SYr has two Helms BB titles from 1918 and 1926. So technically, SYr has more national BB titles than CIncy.

Skipping years...how did you do in your bowl game last year or your last BCS game? Cincinnati is 6-1 against Syracuse since joining the BE in football and have won 3 out of the last four BE championships. Next

I was only looking at earned NCAA tournament titles...2 for UC, 1 for Cuse. I can also use only stats that favor UC...how many elite 8s does Syracuse have since 92...96 and 03. Cincinnati has three since 92...92,93 and 96...guess we are just used to going farther in the tournamnet...goes back to the better tournament winning percentage

Cincy and CUSE on even ground.
Yea I guess most of the nation would agree unranked Cincy is even with #2.

to your points..

1. We have OWNED you in football since joining the BE.

2. You DID in fact beat us at the Shoe, without Fab, and high on weed....true. But we beat you when it counted...in MSG in the BET!!!!

3. You beat us in hoops a majority of the time we have been in the BE...congrats, you beat us during our worst stretch of hoops since the mid 80's....

I do not think beating Cuse in the BET is any bigger an accomplishment than beating us in the regular season. When a conference starts putting 9 to 11 teams in the dance every year it diminishes having end of season tournaments IMO but I understand Cincy fans being happy about it. In the end Cuse was still the #2 seed in the dance so it really did little aside from keeping us from being the #1 overall seed. Now Marquette last season is beating us when it counts.

As for #1 and #3 in this little exchange. Tough to boast about beating Cuse in football since expansion while at the same time diminishing the 7-3 basketball record due to Cincy rebuilding. Cuse football was in far worse shape than Cincy basketball when expansion went down.
