Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 889770, member: 652"] Dunk location is better than Conte. However, the Dunk is the middle of Providence and not on the PC campus. Conte is right on the BC campus. I never spent much time on the BC campus I was in Newton which was like a South Campus bus ride away. The problem this year was the 9pm start time on a Monday. Not many SU fans who weren't from Boston/New England could go. Syracuse always had atleast 25% of the crowd when we played Providence if this game was on a Saturday/Sunday or a weekday at 7pm Syracuse would have had a better crowd. The late start time actually helped Boston College because it made their fans louder and had more sauce in them before arriving. The only reason to miss playing at the Dunk was it more room for SU fans its not that great atmosphere when a big dog isn't in the house. Give PC a UConn-Syracuse program they are up for the game give them Seton Hall/DePaul its not loud. These games are the same for me BC/PC as aren't that different of programs. PC has more local fan support because their are no pro sports in RI and they are a hub of Boston and URI the state school is treated like the University at Buffalo as the state team. BC has success more recently than PC. I think PC has 1 NCAA tournament win since 2000 while Boston College has 4 or 5 NCAA wins in that timeframe. Boston College has fallen on its face because it fired Al Skinner cruelly who did a good job, but his recruiting had fallen off a little a la Coach P. However, BC didn't realize the guy did a decent job and has become crappy since. Donahue was suppose to have a bubble team this year, but hasn't taught his kids how to play any defense. That team has too much offensive talent to be 5-12 and has been the biggest disappointment in the nation. [/QUOTE]
