A couple of interesting games:
1. Radford, coached by Nate Jones' Dad Mike Jones, beat Notre Dame in South Bend.
2. Villanova was beaten at home by almost 30 points by Michigan.

Don't know how many of you saw this play from a D3 game in Mass last night:

The perp has been thrown off the team and banned from campus. Police are investigating possible criminal charges.

I think that he should be banned from the NCAA for at least one year if not for life. There is no place for that in sports.

Northeastern beat Alabama by 15 points today on a neutral court despite their second best player being out with an injury. Previously they beat Ivy favorite Harvard by ten points on the road. And, scarily, they lost to Boston U in their opener.
Northeastern was a near-unanimous pick for 1st in the CAA preseason poll, as they return all of their starters from the team that won the CAA regular season title last year.
In terms of depth top to bottom, I think this Bison OOC schedule is the toughest they have ever played. Too tough if Sestina isn't back soon.

Couldn't agree more.

I hope that the Road Bucknell Bison show up tonight, not the Home Bucknell Bison.

St. Bonaventure beat Siena 82-40 tonight. Siena in its previous game had beaten Harvard. Courtney Stockard is back for the Bonnies, but res could have played his minutes tonight and Bona still would have easily won.
Meanwhile Monmouth lost again - a tough 2-point loss on the road to a pretty good Hofstra team. Gave up a traditional 3-point play with 15 seconds left, and then missed a potential game-winning shot at the buzzer.

Don't discount the on-court value of res's high basketball IQ.

Vermont came back from 10 down in the 2nd half to beat Ivy pre-season favorite Harvard 70-65. Anthony Lamb had 37 points despite missing four FTs late in the game. Makes what the Bison did to him all the more impressive.

I happened to see a little blurb that other night that Arizona won its 52nd straight home non-conference game. They didn't mention who their last loss was against, but I'll bet most Bison fans can guess.

Ohio State is up to 14th in the coaches' poll and 15th in the AP poll.
Pomeroy has OSU as an 18-point favorite.

That sounds about right. We'll do well to keep the margin under 20. ESPN gives us an 8.8% chance of winning.
