Lafayette at #4 Villanova
Army at #5 Oregon
Lehigh at #7 Xavier
Colgate at #19 Syracuse
American at #25 Maryland
Ohio State at Navy
Manhattan at Bucknell
Loyola-Maryland at Duquesne

Not sure where to post this, but JC Show got off to a great start leading Binghamton to a 68-62 win over Cornell. Show had 23 points and 6 rebounds.

Probably, but Xavier only beat Lehigh by 3, and Maryland beat American by 6. The others were never in doubt.
Army trails Oregon by 10

Ouch. Holy Cross goes down to Syracuse 90-46. This comes on top of a 81-49 loss at South Carolina the other day.

That hurts, but something tells me that HC will hit its stride just in time to play the Bison in the PL playoffs.

Boston U plays their second game of the year tomorrow, hosting Northeastern. Their opening game was against . . . Northeastern. Makes it easy to do the scouting report. Travel budget pretty cheap too.

We'll see if Lehigh is for real tonight against Yale. Down 1 with 13:00 to play. Yale beat Washington 98-90 in their first game.

Yale doing great so far. They lost preseason POY Macai Mason to a season-ending injury and still have two good wins to start the season.

Lehigh is 1-2 but has played well in every game against good competition. Lost to Xavier and Yale but defeated Princeton. Kempton averaging 26.5 per game.

They won today without preseason all league guard Kahron Ross. His backup looked good, freshman named Cohen I think. Scary team.

Yes, LU looking very good. The PG is Jordan Cohen from California. Was also offered by the Bison shortly before he committed to Lehigh. Was not on the radar of most programs. Only other reported offer was from Army.

The Faithful at HC should be fired up after a win at Harvard:

Following Bucknell's lead, Lehigh gets its own win on an SEC court, beating Mississippi State by 14. Pomeroy had the Mountain Hawks ranked above the Bulldogs going into the game.

It is nice to see PL teams moving up the kenpom.com rankings. Hmmmm, winning will do that:
#95 Lehigh
#146 Bucknell
#160 Boston U
#220 HC
#229 Colgate
While I like seeing Lehigh in the top 100, I would LOVE to see the Bison break through the 100 barrier.
It is going to be fun watching Bucknell, Boston U, and Lehigh play this season. Of course, HC will probably lurk on the outside and turn it on just in time for the PL tournament.
GO Patriot League!

It's been a good week for PL teams overall with Army beating Columbia, Loyola trouncing Fairfield, and Navy beating UMBC, in addition to the other wins already mentioned.

jkrun80, I could not agree more.
Being a Philly hoops guy, it would be nice to see Navy beat UPenn in Annapolis today. For the life of me, I do not understand why there isn't a Philly Hoops channel on TV. They could show every game that involves a Big 5 team.
