Bu 75 wsu 73!

The game was tied. How do you know we don't go into overtime and win? Our defense forced the turnover. And the lead was taken away by amazing 2nd half shooting from WSU.

Some people are never happy...

Great college basketball game. Sammy Maniscalco for POY!!!

Our defense? Keep telling yourself that. The guy fooled his own player. The inbounder passed to where he was going to be but then stopped just after making it basically a throw to SM. That is a fluke...not defense.

[Bravesfan]

Awful game.


Glad we won.


Doesn't change the fact it was an awful game though.

We did not win this game...WSU lost it. The only reason we win this one is because of a fluke unforced turnover they had with 15 seconds left. This would've been another double digit home game blown. Awful.

Maybe, but a good team still has to take advantage of a turnover. Or we could have stopped them from scoring if they didn't turn it over. The point is they can give us all the turnovers they want. If we don't hit the two free throws at the end, that turnover would have been meaningless.

Braves 11-20 0n 3's for 55%........

SM 10 assts...zero t/o's

Sam made clutch shots (free throws) once again in a huge game for BU, he is definitely first team MVC in my book.

Is this SM's first career double-double? I don't remember him ever having one before, but I could have forgot.

Our meltdown was predictable and comical. Glad we were able to pull this one out. You always want to send out the seniors with a win.

I certainly wasn't laughing. I don't find it funny when BU struggles.

No you aren't.

Our meltdown was predictable and comical.

Exactly my thoughts during the game. Actually when our lead got cut down from 19 to 15 I said "comeback mode initiated". Was it early? Apparently not because anyone could see it coming from a mile away and behind a mountain.

It's the kind of laughing I do when the Cubs blow it in the 9th. Is it funny? No. The first few times it makes me mad and ruins my evening. At this point though, it's maddeningly comical that it's happening again. Getting mad or emotionally invested anymore is pointless.

No you aren't.

Yes...he is.

Gee, this IS fun!!

Stick to your guns BB. Many others know what you mean are in the same boat with you.

Great win! I'll take it!

It was 25-6, then after a time-out... Wichita St begins Full-Court pressure... and they pretty much played it the rest of the way.

Sam went scoreless from 17:34 of the 2nd half to :12 left in the game. Then he hit the FT's to clinch..

He also appeared to be limping in the 2nd half.

Sam hit a couple of big shots in a row tonight and had 10 assists....He kept us in the game for a bit in the second half.

Our defense was fairly decent much of the game actually but many of the WSU turnovers were unforced...

I don't see us winning three games in a row in the tourney....we just don't have that much depth to do so IMO

[BradleyBrave]

No you aren't.

Sure I am. I'm always glad when BU wins. I'm just not glad when we blow big leads at home time and again. Not sure what's hard to understand about that.
