It's quite possible BC loses the rest of their games this season. The best chance they have to get another win is home against Pittsburgh.

Unfortunately, if you put any faith in Ken Pomeroy, you see that he gives bc a 20%+ chance in 6 games: PC 22%, SYR 20%, NC ST 23%, Wake 20%, Pitt 24%, GT 22%. If that math is accurate there's only a 23% chance that the opponent will win all six of those games---but we can hope.

That gives him needed wiggle room on his prediction.

Imagine an ACC team losing to an America East team, a MAAC team, and whatever league Nicholls State is in (Sun Belt? Southland?).....all in the same season!

Southland.
And Ivy League, too. What a year it's been so far!
BC could very well be the worst ACC team in the history of the league, if the pieces fall into place. Wake Forest in 2010-11 and BC in 2011-12 were also horrifically bad.

If Christian, Addazio (and Bates as well) are not all blown out by the end of the school year, it's a clear message that BC has said screw it, and is no longer in the entertainment business.

There was GT in 1981, 4-23 (0-14 ACC) and Clemson in 1955, 2-21 (0-14 ACC). www.dukebasketballreport.com/2011/3/11/5011590/the-accs-worst-team-ever

Following the 1980-81 debacle, Georgia Tech fired its head coach, and hired Bobby Cremins. By 1984, the Yellow Jackets were in the NIT, and a year later made it to the Elite Eight of the NCAA

Bucknell loses to Princeton 72-70. Princeton had as much as 8 point lead late in the game but Bucknell rained 3s at the end versus Princeton hitting their FTs.

Anybody else watch the UCLA @ Oregon game last night?
What a thriller! Oregon's Dillon Brooks hits a 3 at the (buzzer) with (0.8 secs) left on the clock to win 89 - 87 giving the #21 Ducks an upset over # 2 and previously undefeated UCLA!

I did Terrific game UVA dominating Louisville was also a fine game, at a very different pace. Tricky Ricky cannot solve Bennett's defense or offense for a few years now

Tricky Ricky cannot solve Bennett's defense or offense for a few years now love uva and bennett. they play some of the most beautifully-executed basketball of anyone in the country. always fun watching them force their style on opponents and stifle the pitinos of the world.

I watched most of the game. I was surprised to see so many UCLA turnovers. In spite that, it was a most exciting game to watch.

In their other games against top 50 opponents per Pomeroy: Texas A&M: 15 turnovers Kentucky: 18 turnovers Michigan: 8 turnovers Ohio State: 15 turnovers
