And we get to play them again in Worcester. I wonder if some of the chippiness will carry over to the next game even though McCryBaby not there anymore. Nice to be over .500. How good is Albany up next?

our matchup zone was tremendous - only one day of rest until Albany which will be a tough one on the road (and our 5th game in 10 days) Team is playing very well - Grandy-man such a threat from deep.

Albany picked to finish 4th (tied with SBU) in pre-season AE poll. BU beat them handily at their place a few days ago

am I correct in saying the teams were a combined 0 for 3 from the foul line ? a weird game in some ways. (I am sure espn is happy it ended with plenty of time to spare and not to delay the 1:30 tip between Providence and Michigan)

Nice tough gritty win. Shot poorly in first half and was lucky to be ahead. I really like this team! HC covered and has the last 4 games. Jus saying!!

Season to date, HC 41-108 on threes = .380 , well above my benchmark. On defense we have held opponents to 27-99= .273 , which likely will be Top 75 in D-1. Compare to last season when our opponents shot .354 on threes.

There were three free throw attempts in the game - none went in. No free throws made - is that a record in the clock era Impossible for a game to have less than that (Edit) The NCAA record doesn't show games where there were no free throws made combined. So I'm not sure where we'd find that info. I did find out that SBU's 22-0 deficit to start a game was not the largest deficit overcome, there was a 28-0 deficit overcome by New Mexico State in 1977. Even more improbable given there was no three point rule!

Hats off to the refs! "Let 'em play, ref!" . . . . . and they did. I texted someone the score at the half at 11:33. So the first half only took about 30 minutes, with few fouls called. Don’t ever recall one being shorter.

Biggest strategic mistake Siena made today was talking smack to Austin when he was cold early. When he finally made a three right in front of their bench, he turned and said something to them. He was pretty good from that point forward. Don’t poke the bear when he’s sleeping.

Good solid win today..It was nice to see us come back after falling behind by a few (5?) and gain he upper hand..Great job of taking care of the ball all weekend, 5 turnovers today and Sienna pressed the entire game,,Nice to see HC "fake a pass to make a pass" and having Grandy at 6'6" in the backcourt vs the pressure is so nice..This group is doing all the right things out there on offense, penetrate and kick, making the extra pass, putting the ball in the hoop! We sat high behind a basket today, watching the HC match-up was impressive! Great commuication and movement..Everybody was moving as the ball was moving, getting to the receiver as the ball did.. This D is a banana split compared to the last seasons vanilla D...Plus the 1-2-2 teaser press is really making teams work just to get the ball up the court.. Coach Carm has this group playing very good basketball...

How many times will I see ‘Sienna’ ? hey guys, that’s a car - Siena is a famous town in Italy - I cant think of any schools named for a car. Since we’re playing them again, I thought i’d Straighten this out now

HC loses to Michigan, Crossports has 10 Page thread. HC loses to Providence, Crossports has 10 Page thread. HC wins tourney at Sun, Crossports pretty quiet. Nice to see HCFC, NAD and sader1970 at games and excited about what we are watching! This team has snuck up on people; pretty sure it will continue, but it will no longer be too much of a surprise!
