It's a shame

that this second set of games sucks. Yes, there are some upsets on tap, but it’s not like they’re close/enjoyable games to watch for the upset.

They throw rocks at our sucky OOC sched (and it is sucky but I really think that Cuse and the Owls will do something this year) and their schedule thus far is Youngstone, Buffalo (way to go Owls, you got screwed at Buffalo last year) and a pesky but not much of a threat, Navy team. They’re 3-0 and are already claiming the MC!
