An absolute stinker, the second straight at home, as Cornell loses 73-56 to Delaware. Big Red were lucky it was only a 17 point loss.

The only bright spots were Jimmy Boeheim, who went for a career high 23 points, and Matt Morgan, who had 21 points.
As a team, they shot 39 percent for the game and 26 percent from three. Morgan and Boeheim went 6 for 11 from three, while the rest of the team went 0 for 12.
Meanwhile, Delaware shot 54 percent overall and 40 percent from three. They also outrebounded Cornell 38-26.
Earl put in 14 different players to try and get anyone other than Morgan and Boeheim to get something going on offense.
KenPom now has them listed at #278. They are not favored in any game until the home 12/17/18 match against #314 Longwood.
On Saturday, they are going to NJIT, where they are 7 point underdogs and then they go to UConn (who just beat Syracuse last night) on Tuesday.
Between losing these two games and missing out on Days, this was not a good week for the team.

In response to rbg
Julian is shooting 21% from the field. McBride, Whiteside, Gordon and Kuhn are 2 for 32 from behind the arc. You have to think those numbers are unsustainably bad.
But, yeah, this was a bad week for the program.
