Schedule still shows 30. What game did we lose?

None. It was always 30. It could have been 31 but they didn't schedule a 31st game after BC bailed out of the Boston Garden tripleheader.


My season prediction.

15-15
1-1 in the A10 tourney
Then wouldn't be surprised if they accept an invitation to a lower level post season tourney for the experience. The turned one down last year because the expectations were higher.

Sneaky! Maybe at the end of the season, those who can make it can treat you to wings at The Hanger and and watch you present me my prize?

[Roadtrip]

Baseline at the bottom with 8 wins, Fridgidevil at the top with 20. Top vote getters were 15 and 17.

Ummm, you're forgetting someone. My post is legitimate, I think they can win them all with this schedule.

OBSERVATIONS:
- While IV's perfect season is still alive - the consensus average of 15 seems about right from the overall mood of the board
- Attendance was all over the board - the average still seems a bit high based on the first 2 homers for sure
- The leading rebounder is a per game average so this could still be taken by Space who was the most popular pick
