Boston College beats #1 Duke

[kcg88]

Boston College had lost 35 straight games in which KenPom projected them to lose by 10 or more, which was the longest among high-majors.

Rutgers is at 33 straight. We're due.

Duke lost, but it's amazing how they extend the game in the last 30 seconds by sinking 2 baskets to force BC to make fts. They missed their last shot which didn't matter. If it were us it would have been over at the one minute mark.

As much disdain I have for BCU I always love it when Puke and Notre Dame go down.

I root against BC in everything.....except this.

Good job Eagles.

 

[Mr_Twister]

Any time Dahntay Jones' alma mater loses is good.

 

[FELONIOUSMONK]

BC guards can all shoot. What a joy to watch. Maybe ours shall do that someday?

 

[RUJMM78]

Duke allowed too many open 3 point shots and to their credit BC made just enough along with foul shots to win.

 

[LC-88]

Duke was (12-13) and BC (12-15) on free throws. Looks like the refs didn't accept AMEX. Nice.

Did they turn off the lights on purpose?

 

[biazza38]

Watching duke guard the three was really pathetic

 

[biazza38]

Did they turn off the lights on purpose?

I think so. Very bad decision

Always root against duke, except when they play Unc or Louisville

 

[LotusAggressor_rivals]

Always root against duke, except when they play Unc or Louisville

In that case, you would root for the earth to open up and swallow both teams.

BC showed patience with Jim Christian which is proving to be smart. They played well and have a nice roster in Year 4 of the HC.

So since Nebraska beat BC does that make them #1? Or does it make one of the many teams that’s beat Nebraska #1? Oh well....

 

[MadRU]

#2 Kansas lost too

 

[xkiesterx]

I bet Duke stays at #1 next week with Kansas losing. They beat MSU head to head. Only other option is Nova.

I know it makes no sense, but for whatever reason BC basketball not sucking doesn't bother me as much as BC football not sucking. In any event, Duke losing is one of those "greater good" situations, where even when it's distasteful you have to root for what would result in the greater good.

That's always Duke losing. And preferably the entire roster from Ratface on down contracting headaches, unpleasant stomach flu and painful rectal itch simultaneously.

Does this mean The Nova is #1?

 

[kcg88]

Does this mean The Nova is #1?

Absolutely. They'll get most of if not all the first place votes. Only other option is Michigan State but now their only loss isn't to the undefeated #1 team.

Duke won't stay at #1, lol. Is this your first year watching college basketball?

I don't know if Duke will stay at #1, but I wouldn't be surprised.

I would bet on three things. They will not be lower than #2, the only team that could be ranked #1 ahead of them is Nova, and they will receive a bunch of first place votes.

Also, you are rude.
