Stony Brook - Men

[AlbanyObserver]

I think this is going to be a tough contest, despite the fact we are well-rested. We can't overlook them. Because this is basically a rivalry game, you can throw out the records. I was impressed with SBU the last time we played because they never gave up when we should have put the hammer down on them and won the game by 20 points. I wish this game was on television.

 

I am sure our NYC guys (Jamar, Levi and Q) will be excited to play down there.

 

Also, we need to keep the momentum going. I think our program had a goal to win 15 games this year and winning this game brings us closer to that mark. The Northeastern game on Sunday will probably have an AE Tourney feel to it. The reason I say that is because that is my prediction for the AE Tourney championship game -- UAlbany at Northeastern

Very tough game for the Danes.

 

Macarachuk has the refs in his pocket downstate. At home SBU can be very, very tough.

 

I wouldn't be surprised to see K pick up 2 quick ones and I wouldn't be surprised if Jamar had a hard time getting to the free throw line.

 

Let's hope we play well and come away with a "W".

 

We need good games from LU and Levi and a solid shooting performance from Brent.

Need to manage Cori Spencer in the post and stop the 3. When they played at the RACC, Santiago hit a lot of 3's to keep them in the game.

 

Stony Brook just beat Binghamton - will be a tough game.

I agree, despite SBU's record, this will be a very tough game. I still think Santiago won't do as well (HOPEFULLY!!..lol) against us this game as it seemed like he had a hot hand. But still, very tough on the road with the rivalry and all. Even Pomeroy just predicts us with a 54% chance and a win by 2..VERY CLOSE. Hopefully we pull this one out.

I wouldn't be surprised to see K pick up 2 quick ones and I wouldn't be surprised if Jamar had a hard time getting to the free throw line.

Well, got part of it right already. Zo with 2 fouls in 10 minutes.

 

And it takes about 12 minutes for SBU to get their first team foul. Right.

36-27 SB at the half...uhhhh that hurts.

[GreatDanes06]

68-63 loss...that hurts. Now lets see what happens with Hartford and Binghamton

[Oldtimer]

Hartford by 4--final, UA backs in to 4 seed.

[UAalum72]

Hartford hangs on 58-54. With Maine losing, the 5-6 seed is still up in the air?

[Oldtimer]

Bing plays BU, Maine plays UVM, Bing beat Maine twice----Bing is going to be #5, see ya noon Saturday.

[AlbanyObserver]

Just shows you that all road conference games are tough ones. Very disappointed in our first half at Stony Brook. However, playing Senior Night games is not an easy task. Don't underestimate the Seawolves. They have the talent to knock off the #2 seed in the tourney. They beat BU last year.

 

You know this league has come a long way when UMBC with a seven-game losing streak almost knocks off Vermont at home.

 

We have nothing to lose on Sunday at Northeastern so hopefully the guys will come out and play loose. The Huskies are hot!!!

Somebody help me out if I'm missing something.

 

Bing and Maine are both 7-10 and Stony Brook is 6-11. If Bing and Maine both lose and the Brook wins (against UNH) that's three teams at 7-11. Bing swept Maine and split with the Brook, Maine swept the Brook so I have no idea how they figure that out. My guess is whover beat the higher seed. Maine's best win is against Northeastern, SB's best win is over Albany and Bing's best win is over Albany.

[Urban Barrister]

Dane: I believe you answered your own question. If both Maine and Bing lose next week and Stony Brook wins, Maine gets the 5th seed due to their win against NU. Bing then gets the 6th seed over Stony Brook, though I'm not sure why.

[Dane Pound]

Actually the AE site has the scenerios this morning. I'm not sure why Stony Brook can't get above the 7 seed but here it is:

 

Albany (9-8, 13-13) is the No. 4 seed.

 

Binghamton (7-10, 10-16) and Maine (7-10, 12-14) are battling for the No. 5 and 6 seeds. A Beatcat win or a Black Bear loss and Binghamton is the No. 5 seed.

 

Maine (7-9, 12-13) will be either the No. 5 or No. 6 seed.

 

Stony Brook (6-11, 11-15) is the No. 7 seed.

[AlbanyObserver]

Wow -

 

I think the possibility of Binghamton and Maine losing and Stony Brook winning their last regular season game is highly possible. Guess this means we might be playing Maine at 8:30 now??????
