BC is 89 in kenpom (probably because the combined record of teams they've lost to is 15-0)
Washington is 129 in kenpom

Any clue what the odds are for this one?

BC -1. Basically a PK, which sounds about right. Both defenses are horrible, both teams can score.

Arlington, Texas is 1790 miles from Chestnut Hill. That's all you need to know.

Question: Which school will have more fans at today's consolation game?

Also why does Rahon look so slow these last few games? Injury?

The answer to the original question is neither. Not counting pep bands and paid staff, neither team has any fans there.

Credit where credit is due, great response by Rahon after a rough game last night. Offense looks tremendous thus far, and rebounding has been good.

I hate that BC has become one of those teams that lives and dies by the 3 pointer. Absolutely hate it.

It actually would be fine if we had decent shooters. With the exception of tonight, we just throw up bricks on wide open shots.

Strong offensive half, for the most part. Can Drago not dunk the basketball?

Still funny to me that this board goes quiet whenever BC is playing well, and erupts when they play poorly.

We found the basketball Holy Grail:

Redo our schedule, and play these teams only:
Washington U of St. Louis
Washington and Lee
Washington County (ME) Community College
U of Mary Washington
BC once attracted stars like Abrams, Adams, Agbai, Austin, Bagley, Barros, Bell, Curley, Driscoll, Dudley, Eisley, Evans, Huckaby, Jackson, McCready, Murphy, O'Brien, Rice, Smith, Williams, et al.

Those days are gone.

And who is responsible for that?

Good to see we're using the momentum from last night in our favor. Can't possiBly go on a streak without someone other than Hanlan or Anderson showing up occasionally.

Where are all the Caudill haters? He's shooting 66.7% on the season. Must have worked his ass off the summer.

But honestly Hanlan, Rahon, and Anderson look great. Drago looks pretty good too and the rebounding has been good. Just have to close out these last 15 minutes.

I hear what you are saying, but I think that's human nature. More people will call into sports radio after a bad loss because they think they have the answer. When the team wins, there is not as much to correct. Also, I don't think anybody is watching this game.

BC out-numbers UDub 20:1. There at most 4 Washington fans here. Suck on that 81!

Btw... Margarity is functional and Odio is terrible. Heck still in Spaz's doghouse.

Good win. Magarity could have some value; unsure about Drago. Odio's mental game/confidence is weak at present. Nice to see Lonnie hitting some shots. What is the deal with Heckmann? Not going to see much court time?
