The Morning After: Trevor Cooney is Your Homey

“Trevor Cooney is my homeboy”

That’s what I text to my old ‘Cuse buddy StrawHatGuy whenever Trevor hits a big 3.  I said that a lot last night during Syracuse‘s 61-55 victory over the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.

Monday night’s contest was the epitome of the hangover game.  After the Orange #BeatDuke in a game for the ages, both the players and the crowd were listless all night.  While the Irish never really, truly threatened…they were a threat to threaten all night, which made the game closer than it really should have been.
