Hard to believe Loyola also beat Lehigh earlier in the season.

Hard to believe BU lost this one One stat tells the story. Boston - a good 3-point shooting team - hit 1-18 from beyond the arc. Loyola, who in not as good, hit 9-17 - all by Walker. Hard to overcome that.

Like most years, bottom of league capable of beating teams at top in PL this season. Greyhounds will not be at the bottom this season. They have enough athleticism, experience & toughness to beat anybody in the league on a given night. Hankerson & Scanlon couldn't miss against AU in Boston last week - not so tonight. Even so, we were in it with them late at their place despite their hot shooting that night. Road loss never a surprise in PL. As usual respect all fear none. This year's Loyola better than prior versions since they joined the league.

The game was on CBS. No surprise the greyhounds have beaten two of the top teams. They are good

Loyola is hard to figure out, losing to Lafayette at home but beating Lehigh on the road three days later. Then the Greyhounds whip BU, propelled by the disparity in three point shooting as bison 137 notes and by making 26 free throws....

Then the Greyhounds whip BU, propelled by the disparity in three point shooting as bison 137 notes and by making 26 free throws.... They run up and down the court, which can cause their opponents to get out of the sync they prefer and rush offensively, which BU did constantly last night.. They also have a player - Andre Walker - who can single-handedly take over a game offensively like he did last night. I don't think there's another individual in the PL, other than Kempton, who can do that. The Greyhounds are wildly inconsistent, but dangerous, especially at home.

Andre Walker makes 9 threes against us? We lose.

I just noticed that home teams are 12-18 in league play so far. How long can this percentage hold up?

BU needs to realize that Colgate doesn't play flat in empty gyms. They feed off the lack of crowd energy. That's what they were recruited to do.

CARO looking like clairvoyant on his bold prediction on demise of BU. Bucknell is the only team playing with any consistency, Lehigh is hard to figure as they appear to be most talented team but seem to play down to their competition. We are now in position to make a good run at the upper echelon of the league as we have both BU and Lehigh at home in the second half of league play.

CARO looking like clairvoyant on his bold prediction on demise of BU. Yeah - and I'm sure he also thought HC had "0.0%" chance to win the title last year at this time when operating under a different screen name. Very clairvoyant...

Is bbc HC70 in disguise? Maybe not. bbc knows more about basketball strategy than '70. Do miss '70 though. Probably could fill in some of our injury and recruiting gaps.

Would be interesting to hear what's going on inside the clubhouse. Who has been suspended and for how long?
