Tight 1st half Bonnies and UConn, 29-28 UConn up,
Bonnies really miss Lofton directing the team, also Osun with 2 fouls in the first 3 minutes didn't help the cause.
UConn with their depth can absorb the injuries and foul situation much better, props to Hurley.
Should be a good second half.

John Chaney ain’t walking thru that door. Temple sucks.

At all sports. It’s impressive actually. The AAC has been awful for them.

Not beaten OOC ranked team. He has beat ranked A-10 teams.

They mentioned that Bona, going back several decades under many coaches, has not beaten an OOC ranked opponent in 40 plus years.

St Bonaventure stands at 8-2 with its best wins over NET numbers #60 Marquette, #72 Clemson, and #85 Buffalo. Two double digit losses to #14 UConn and at home to #246 Northern Iowa. They still have OOC games outside Olean on a neutral court versus #35 Va Tech and at #164 Northeastern. Two wins would much improve their NCAA wiggle room.

Richmond wins a close one 72-69. The A-10 won on its home courts today. If VCU can win on the road tonight the league could be 6-2 for the day.

For what? These games of interest are of no value. It isn’t like BC is going to be a quality win. They will hammered in ACC

Yes, but need to double mask, have vax card showing multiple booster shots and no cheering is allowed.

Yes another quality win for them against a P5 team. That is 6 wins in their last 7 games against tough competition.
Dayton is young and started out slow this season, but I give Grant credit they are coming on strong.
This team also has some nice depth and several options upfront.

Nova with only 36pts and as a team shot 22%FG, that is brutal.

The two Baylor - Kansas games look to be must watch. Good scheduling, too. Both games are in February.

I think UConn wins the BE this year, as long as they avoid too many injuries to key players.

Poor Cooley.
