They just announced a cash infusion that sounded even more fake than VTs

BC blows a 4 point lead in the final minute. Terrible final shot. Heads to OT.

For those who didn’t see it - BC on the line with 3 pt lead and shooting two with a minute left. Shooter makes the second. In the next minute Thomas makes two virtually uncontested layups to tie it. BC didn’t threaten to score, including a shot at the buzzer that was not close. Didn’t watch it, but apparently the OT was not competitive.

That would have been such a nice, and unexpected, win for the ACC to tie the Challenge.

BC should be relegated out of the conference. They’re not even trying as an athletic department

Boston in general should be relegated to being part of Canada. What a 4th tier town. Wouldn’t even be in the top 10 towns in Ohio. Ben affleck and Matt Damon suck.

This hurt my feelings a lot. Started about 3 vicious, soul-crushing replies to counteract this nonsense, but I do live in Palm Beach now so I can’t muster a properly aggressive response. I’ll settle on this…

Cape Cod/Nantucket/Marthas Vineyard >The Hamptons and we have better chowder than whatever that tomato soup gruel is they serve in New York.

Also, I take great pleasure in watching the New York sports teams either collapse, or fail to launch every season. I guess the NY Liberty are good though, so there’s that…

Lawal out indefinitely. Could be a more serious injury than originally thought and likely not back by the time we play them later this month.

Agreed.

Love the area. I’ll be down there in January. Let’s hang out.

Boston college athletics update:

Their men’s tennis team has not won an ACC match since 2018

They’re in real dire straits up there. Just cash it all in for hockey or something.

[chavlicek15]

Book it!

Notre Dame TCU headed to OT

[Hooandtrue]

Good win for Notre Dame. For ACC. But more importantly TCU was on a little too much of a hot streak season wise so this helps kill their morale a bit to push Punch to the portal

edit: NVM Notre Dame misses fts TCU hits 3. game still goin

[Hooandtrue]

David Punch misses the shot to send it to double OT (they got the ball to him late so he had to rush it up). GO ACC

[haney]

Summing up the ACC:

• Duke in a tight one at Mich St
• GT in a tight one with … Monmouth
• BC in a tight one with … New Haven

[wahoobelinda]

All of whom won. But I would not be surprised if George Mason beats Tech.

Strangely, NC State is only up 5 on UNC Asheville.

[tonyburnertt]

UVa belt to ass out of conference all week…

Are we underestimating our potential in the conference???

[crazysportsdude]

Up to third in the conference in KenPom (though the difference between third and eighth is five points)

[lodger96]

This should be part of Message Board Geniuses: Duke never gets a good whistle!

LOL Yeah, Satan just can’t catch a break.

“As usual, Duke is getting hosed by the referees” what bizarro world does Seth reside in……..?

[crazysportsdude]

I’m convinced Seth is just an engagement farmer at this point (and a really good one at that) there’s no way he’s unironically on the wrong side of every college basketball controversy
