Great night for #d3h.
Buff State trailed the whole second half, hit a three with 2 seconds to go to tie and send it to overtime.  The same guy hits an off-balanced runner to take a two point lead with six seconds left in overtime - then Cortland comes down and nails a contested three to win.  Gutsy decision to shoot for the win rather than go to the hoop.

Great night for #d3h...but horrible night for yours truly :'( :'(. I had a birds eye view of JP Reagan's game winner at the buzzer, when Cortland quickly got the ball up court to Reagan who was 2 for 2 from beyond the arc for the night. Painful night for my beloved BENGALS who fought back from 7 down with 2:20 left in regulation :( :(. Nico McLean hits a 3 pointer with 2 seconds left in regulation to tie it up. Then McLean hits a 2 pointer with less than 7 seconds in O/T to put Buff State up by 2. You know the rest. This 1 hurt!!  Kudos to Cortland, they were the better team tonight. Next up, #25 Oswego State (in less than 17 hours). Gotta love these SUNYAC schedulers!!!

Go BENGALS

     What a difference a day makes... :D.!! After a devastating loss  :'( yesterday to Cortland, my beloved BENGALS  come back today with a "quality" win vs #25 Oswego! And while this means nothing more than just a win, my boys sure could use this "shot in the arm" after yesterdays buzzer beater loss.

  I must admit at half time there were many who were wondering if Buff State was out of their funk yet. A season low 23 point on 27.9 % shooting, at halftime,  is not a way to beat Oswego (who was up 32-23). However Jordan Chateau "J. C". decided that after scoring only 5 pts and snatching 5 rebounds vs. Cortland, it was time to step up. And step up he did!! 22 pts, 9 rebounds and 1 block is the kind of performance that many of the BENGAL faithful had come to expect from J.C.. And he delivered.  :)

   Add Lovell Smiths double-double (17 points and 11 boards), Mike Henry's "near" double -double (10 boards and 9 pts), Nico McLeans  9 pts, 8 rebounds and 4 steals and Jordan Glover's 8 pts and 4 steals, and you have a starting unit that accounted for all but 1 point in this "must win" game. And after Buff State was outscored by 9 in the 1st half , they turned it around and held Oswego to 19% shooting in the 2nd half and nearly doubled Oswegos pts (43-24)

  A 1-1 weekend, against 2 of the top tier SUNYAC teams, is not what BENGAL faithful had in mind Friday morning...but we'll take it. Alfred U. (4-1) is next up this Saturday. BENGALS are gonna have to do better if they want that "W". Here's to hoping that T.B.I.Y.T.C. (the best is yet to come)!! ;)

GO BENGALS!!

Amherst gave up a big lead, then hit FTs down the stretch to stay undefeated against Brandeis.

I love these blogs.

I have to admit that I was surprised to see Washington University in the Top 25 overall and it your Top 25.  My thought was that the voters would preemptively take them out with Augustana looming on Saturday, but maybe some voters did not want to be proven wrong if the Bears pull the upset, but does anyone actually see that happening?

Gregory Sager

Well, I sure don't. I was pretty unimpressed by the Wash U team I saw the other day, and both times that I've seen Augie it's looked like a team that has "Salem" written all over it. I think that the Doggies are going to win this one going away. But, you know what? You never can tell. That's why they play the games, right?

That is why they play the games.

I have not confirmed this yet, but Michael Bregman is not listed as a reserve on the tip sheet for the games this week and I have never heard of someone recovering from mono in one week so I assume Schmelter is out.

Sadly, a loss to Augustana would break a long record of (almost) only losing the big games at home during the postseason.


Dave 'd-mac' McHugh

Well... I said why they are still there... I honestly don't love that I have them there... I should have just saved face and cut them altogether and never had them in my Top 25 in the first place. Sometimes I ignore my gut and the other voice in my head and instinct takes over... instinct pushed for WashU and instinct is bad right now.

So D Mac...

Why do you have Elmhurst higher than Benedictine? (Benedictine beat Elmhurst convincingly at Elmhurst.)

And why Wash U ranked and IWU not? (IWU beat Wash U.)

Ryan Scott (Hoops Fan)


Really seems like a great game going on at Albertus Magnus, hosting Brooklyn.  AMC got out to a 15 point lead in the early second half, but Brooklyn is systematically working its way back.  The video isn't coming through for me.  A real shame.
