Don’t look now, but Boston College...

[SUFan44]

has a better resume than us.

Oh yeah, they also lost one of their top 3 players with a season-ending injury.

Then we definitely lose when we play them.

Based on what I've seen this season in terms of offensive ineptitude and serious depth issues, wouldn't be surprised at all if we finished bottom 3 in the league. Anything is possible (no I am not predicting that). Pretty crazy.

On another note, best outcome by far from FSU game was Howard Washington. Get him minutes. Defense has to get better but get him minutes.

Everybody is going to lose when we play each other.

BC beat FSU tonight. Kamadgie (sp?) had 2 points and 2 rebs. They did a better job on him.

Just figures. We have a 7-footer to at least match up with him and can't shut him down while BC does. WTH?

 

[raf4488]

You just knew FSU would have a letdown. Road ACC game 2 days after a double OT win

 

[stlorange]

Don't shoot the messenger. Love the cuse but bc has a better TEAM than cuse this year. They play together and are fun to watch. Their big man knows how to play within himself and has more bb skills than chewy (and I think chewy has really improved this year but he does not have innate bb skills).

Seen few minutes of the game tonight while sitting at the bar. This guy couldn't miss on Saturday (though many were jams) and could not hit tonight. He had 23/24 pts against us, played 35 min in a 50 min game. How many times have we let mediocre players have career games against us? Must be in our DNA!

 

[jncuse]

It's an interesting resume.

Their RPI is high now, because they had a brutal OOC SOS. They likely have to win at least one extra ACC games than us to be on par on Selection Sunday because of the difference in schedule. But they can ultimately be one of those teams that gets in with a mid-high 60 RPI because of quality wins.

Let me guess,they didn’t let a guy repeatedly receive a pass 8 feet from the basket and then lob it to him for a dunk ?

Cause our defensive scheme results in a situation where our 7footer has to be two places at once

Any defensive scheme can be exploited especially when not executed well. It is the forward(s) who neglected to come protect the rim. Chukwu did his job and stepped up to the paint invader.

 

[STEVEHOLT]

“Paint invader”

That game was a classic

Nice catch. Lol. Didn't even make the connection.

 

[andyw715]

ACC home team record is 28-10, it's hard to win on the road in the ACC, no matter who you are.

 

[Alsacs]

They will beat us at BC this year.
They are better than us this year.
Which is fine they have been rebuilding for 4 years they should be better by now.
This year is a wash.

Which is why losing that ND was just insanity.

Can't agree that he did his job. He neither prevented the pass nor defended the dunk. He was in no man's land every time. I don't think that's how JB drew it up.

FSU was gassed - sort of predictable that a team off a double OT win Saturday going on the road Monday.

 

[SUFan44]

ACC home team record is 28-10, it's hard to win on the road in the ACC, no matter who you are.

We are 1-1. We've also played two teams without their best player and lost both.

 

[Dinkyspond]

We are 1-1. We've also played two teams without their best player and lost both.

Not to mention Wake lost their best scorer early in our game and never returned and we still lost. Make it 0-3 when the opposition is shorthanded. When we have someone hurt, the other team usually makes us pay.

Not to mention, our game against them was their "Superbowl!" Or, maybe that doesn't work for this year...perhaps next year when we're assumably strutting our swag of yesteryear.

We're getting to the point where that excuse doesn't work at all against anybody.

They should never be better than us

This isn’t the pros where bad teams get higher draft picks .. in fact they get the equivalent of worse draft picks
