[cvilleagle]

Cahill coming up big.

[SJeagle09]

Cahill with some big plays

[NotoriousOrange]

score please

[bcmurph]

LOt of those long rebounds...

[eagle9903]

score please

62-62

[EagleDave]

62 all

BC fails to grab a rebound and Virginia has repeatedly made them pay for it.

[NotoriousOrange]

Thx for the score

[SJeagle09]

Trap with some HUGE blocks

[EagleDave]

Wow unbelievably dumb foul by UVA on the rebound...big free throws from Raji...

[EagleDave]

UGH for the love of god...

Someone grab a fucking rebound...

EDIT: Whoever decided that basketball teams need 27 timeouts per game should be murdered. Donahue and Bennett are on pace to call a timeout every 15 seconds for the final 2 minutes.

[cornellfan]

Does Virginia want to lose? They were just standing around waiting to foul

ahhh, please make these free throws and foul before they can shoot the 3

[EagleDave]

This is unbearable...

[EagleDave]

6 timeouts and 2 substitution timeouts in the last 2 minutes of the game...

[joemack13]

Say what you want about Al but he knew timeouts just aggravate people

[Cadillac90]

Game?

[joemack13]

winner winner chicken dinner

BC 70 UVA 67 final

[Mike_S]

Clutch foul shooting in the last minute or two to ice it, great job. How did UVA ever make that long 3 with 7 seconds left ?!?

Thanks for the link, it was cool to see the ending.

[bcmurph]

Game?

Over...4-1 in conference...we'll take it

[bcbcbcbcbc4444]

do we have any chance @FSU? I feel like they just have way too much size for BC to contend, especially on the road.

I think we have a chance. Not a great one - I think maybe like 20%. Shots would have to be falling like crazy. FSU is not a great scoring team, they just play very good defense. But we play very good offense, so we have a chance.

Does their success lie solely in the strength of their interior defense or can they also guard the 3 well? If the former is only true id feel much more confident because BC has become primarily a 3 pt shooting team.

I'd like to thank the ubernerd who called from BC to ask for money when there were 2.8 seconds on the clock. When told he was missing the game, at least he asked what the score was.

Their guards aren't fantastic (if you want an up close look, they're playing right now on NESN against Miami), but good enough. The strength lies mostly in their size and depth. They'll make life incredibly unpleasant in the paint for us. The only real chance is if they shooting 50%+ from 3 and they keep the rebounding margin low.

[gaelfu]

Good win. Nice to see us pull it out even though we shot like crap from 3. My personal highlight of the night was near the beginning of the game when Dunn jacked up a 17 footer off the catch... and missed horribly.

I think we have a better chance than people might give us credit for against FSU because their strength is interior defense and we don't really score inside all that much. If Reggie can beat their guards to the basket, we should have some open looks from distance.

classic... beauty... just sublime..

[auggiebc]

Speaking of Alex...he will be in the house with another 5 star recruit per his twitter

Good bounce back. Everyone played well. Headin to the BC-Virginia game with Kaleb

I know that most on this board think it's unlikely that we will land Alex Murphy, but he obviously has an interest in BC. This is the 2nd BC game he's attended this year. In other words, he's attended more of our games than 90% of the BC student body.

I have no doubt that he's got some legitimate interest in BC. I'll even go so far as to say we've nudged ahead of Kansas and North Carolina in terms of his interest level. But when push comes to shove, I doubt seriously he's going anywhere but Duke. There's a great chance we'll finish 2nd in this race, which is a start.

Is it just be more has any1 else noticed that Danny Rubin has been a complete none factor since conference play has started.... 0-points and 1-shot tonight.... 9-total points in 4 conference games... You think the Don will insert Raji into the starting lineup???
