BC had a reason to play on Sunday. They wanted to beat "the best team ever". Losses happen when the other team wants it more. UNC didn't look like they wanted it until 5:00 left when they picked up the pace on both ends but just couldnt get the 3 ball to go in that would have gotten them over the hump or some crucial foul shots down the stretch.
BC had no reason to play this game. They thought they were hot shit and the smart kids were coming to town so they could just coast through the game. Doesn't work like that. Wasn't surprised too much. It was a coin toss whether they would be inspired and blow them out or if they would lay an egg. They laid the egg. I was surprised they lost but I wouldn't have been shocked at all if they won the game by 2.

How can you not like these situations? One of the most profitable ways to beat the books is to fade average teams that just upset top 10 teams. College baskets is largely mental.....these are 18-21 year olds after all......this loss to harvard will give bc some line value in the next game or two as well...
