Couldn’t win the big one vs UMD.

Lot of hype on the train early on

He’s not wrong lots of hype early on and announcing Joey. Tewey top 5 early on. Gotta win the big games , gotta be clutch when it counts . Easy to win against weak teams and put up 8

They were a couple of inches/degrees on an angle of dive away from an overtime win against one of the top defensive teams (in terms of team D and stars at pole and in goal) in the country. I'd feel pretty optimistic as an Orange fan.

Syracuse looks like it's lacking a true ACC initiating attackman. Very pretty ball movement, but I'm not seeing anyone that can really beat their man. Joey needs a pick, we saw what Zap did to him in the first half. He didn't really try anything again after that. Kid has awesome vision, skill and an offense designed to cater to him. Lots of picks below GLE, back pipe goals and hands free assists.

I just don't see his "Top 5" Tewey dodging prowess. When compared to the likes of Pat Kav, O'Neil, or Shelly. "He's not that type of player," yes I know- but that's who he's going up against. A lot of hype around him and Cuse- but still are unproven against the Top Dogs. Cuse will need to beat UNC to get 4th in the ACC. If they can steal one or two more than that, they'll be in a good spot.

Not at all. I legit asked that question a few weeks back and some poster responds with a one word response “Mule” like he’s The artist Seal or something. Never heard of this transfer until this year so was kind of chuckling to see that play out last night. I don’t see the hype with him and Hiltz is not a dodger either. Leo would make for a fantastic attackmen as well imo. They will need the attack to score to make it far into may.

As I said, this is a nice team but pump the brakes. They didn’t win the big one. Beating Utah, UVM etc is not it. They need to make that step, that’s all I said.

Spallina did not get the better of Zap at all this game. The cuse O is a lot of pretty ball movement and will score their points but as I said, there are only a few superpowers this year ie Duke, UVA, and ND and everyone else. No disrespect to cuse but they always do this with their teams. Front load the home schedule for an extended amount of time with cupcakes (not umd) and never play on the road.

They will need to go 2-0 vs Hop and Army.

Spallina is real. Put six of 7 shots on goal against a good defender and easily could have had three goals if not for McNaney who is helluva goalie. #22 isn't the quickest or strongest but have been impressed by use of skillset within team, rarely forces , thought he stuck with a few back ins too long last night when help came, UM coordination and timing on slides are clearly a team strength.

Losing 4q lead was disappointing but saw Orange bright future after a very poor start . Stretch of 9-4 run was led by youngsters not transfers ( Kohn held own with fine successor in Mullen) or vets in last year .Soph Rhoa had coming out party, youngster overshadowed but immense talent. Leo showed off his speed.

. Tillman's provides a edge with game coaching that contrasts with our front man. Given UM propensity to pack, the rockets of Birtwhistle and Kellogg from outside would have been of more benefit than #23 in this game. Stevens skillset is not fully utilized and backup lam should not be taking mins from primary. Man down unit? using backups makes sense from certain angles, see how that develops .Mark stats weren't great but he made some point blank saves in 2nd half . Dwan will be a AA, Rice is a very good dm and Levine showed some promise there. Please to see Caccamo in as third.

One final thought, calling of game has gotten way too soft, question some of the penalties last night including the two minute non releasable on M defender that was not taken advantage of by Cuse. The call off of o/t goal by Leo was correct . Hope for a rematch in tourney

There have been some really boring games and mismatches this early season. This game and the Villanova v Yale game gave me hope that this year will be awesome. More of this please.
