Brutal. They were on the ropes and we had good looks. You have to make those to win a game like this. Can’t fault the effort this half though.

Here is some good news: After tonight, we will probably win 7 of our next 10 games! So long as we don’t schedule HC again

Nice play run for the "shooter" that just made one. Wide open look. And a chance for a 2 for 1 end of half. Miss. Honestly two good looks at the end. Much different feeling if we found a way to hit.

Disagree. They are a mediocre offense and not a great shooting team (despite this showing). Well I said it cause the last matchup was a double digit loss and this game the Hoyas are currently down double digit, yet again You could say that for every BE opponent other than Xavier or DePaul this year. At least one game against PC we had a lead with 3 mins to go.

Providence is a very, very bad matchup Disagree. They are a mediocre offense and not a great shooting team (despite this showing).

Another half were about to give up 55 points. Against a below average D1 offense.

Both Providence games were winnable (as were the Xavier games). If anything a tight game late in the 2nd half might get PC to feel the weight of a bubble bursting loss. We have nothing to lose and hope we play that way.

The shooting pct of our opponents in the last 5 mins of close games is almost statistically impossible. It’s amazing.

Cook is a MAAC level player. He played this many minutes only because Akok left late and other big transfers didn’t pan out. Him playing this much was plan c. To his credit he has done ok given the increased role, but still he’s not a BE starting caliber player.

Like clockwork, we are falling apart down the stretch. The two quick fouls on Fielder (the first was incredibly soft) changed the complexion of the game.

Win or lose this effort / completeness is what I expected most of the year. I guess RB and Fielder just weren’t ready for the step up in competition earlier. But when they are contributing at this level, this is a much different team.

SJ may get tight the longer we stay in this game.

Are the BE standings pretty much locked in now? Do we get StJ twice in a week? No we’ll get PC again unless they beat UConn I believe.

someone should ask Ed why Bristol didn't play until the last minute. Fielder I get was in foul trouble, but I would have at least let him foul out before allocating those minutes to others who literally have given us nothing in a month plus.
