144 to 71 BU! The walk-ons both drained 3's. They played the last 8 mins of the game, so we weren't being un-sportman like about it either. They kept pressing and were kept beating it.

Not surprised, there are only 5 worse teams in America.

Depaul has way too much talent on the floor to be playing so poorly. I know leitao is trying to instill a defensive culture, and their defense looks solid, but they shouldn't be down double digits at home to western Michigan.

At least the crowd looks pretty good.

Congrats to Butler for scoring 144 points, but The Citadel is the worst team I have every had the pleasure of watching. They are downright horrid. I think my men's league team could have given Butler a better game.

It's not even like butler poured it on. Dunham had 22 in the first half, only 2 in the second.

Honestly, they didn't have to as Citadel provided most of the assists thru easy to's. I doubt BU will ever reschedule them.

Oh course they are bad... :roll: But that is a lot of points, they had 108 with 12 mins to go and took the foot off the gas pedal. (Hard to turn down a layup once you break a press though. ;) ) This year BU will lick it's chops if you press us, write that down.

Are we really talking about buy teams being 'bad' ? Of course they are bad, they are buy teams. Its no different than beating the crap out of last year's 322 Fairleigh Dickinson. That's what you are supposed to do.

That said, you just don't see that kind of scoring in college basketball -- even against non-D1s. Its just a very good offense, quite possibly elite
