    RT @slmandel: Cincinnati about to take down 31-1 Syracuse, head to Big East final. Huge moment for that program.

    Back-to-back dunks from both teams — Melo then Gates.Goaltending again called on Syracuse; and with that, the Cats are up by seven points.

    SU is bringing the full court pressure, and Cincinnati is having a tough time handling it. Dixon was double-teamed and had to call timeout.

    Goaltending called on that one — count the bucket from Gates to put the Cats back up by ten points, 43-33.

    Some strange whistles against the #Bearcats to start 2nd half aiding in the #Orange-heavy crowd coming to life with deficit down to 12.

    We're back in action. Both teams turn the ball over on opening possessions of the second half.

    #Bearcats are 20 minutes away from a historic win at MSG. I can tell you this much, life comes at your fast with the Orange. Gotta be ready!
