In response to Old Bear

Like I said: when did Brown host Michigan? It's not the same game depending on where it's played (there's a reason the RPI was adjusted to acknowledge this). I bet the Bears would salivate at the chance of getting this particular Michigan team in Pizzitola rather than in Ann Arbor. It's a great win for Harvard, and I hope we see more BCS teams travelling to tiny Ivy gyms in the future despite this result. It only benefits the league as whole if it happens.

(In fact, wouldn't be surprised if we see more - when even Syracuse is scheduling real road games before Big East season begins you know BCS coaches are listening to the selection committee's mantra on going on the road, and some of them may think the best way to do that is not to play George Mason or Butler but aim at supposed "cheap" road wins against the Ivies and below.)
