Game Thread [2021-22] Duke at Boston College

[DrKlahn]

i think this was to keep anyone from getting hurt. yes it will make the final score really close

Blakes is even worse than that nerdy bench player that used to kiss Zion's ass

 

[Devilsforlife]

lmao wtf is this

 

[DrKlahn]

i support the decision to keep the starters away from what BC has in mind right now

 

[DrKlahn]

i also did not bet on this game

 

[mkvl04]

But we still have starters out there

 

[Devilsforlife]

I think the shitheads would go 0-20 in the ACC if they played starters minutes

 

[mkvl04]

Roach keels and even moore

 

[burksballer20]

Why are they fouling?

 

[DurhamSon]

Garcia pulled an Elliot Williams on Hubert

 

[DrKlahn]

it's their only game all year that anybody will watch

 

[physicsfactor]

18 point lead down to 10 in four possessions of shithead time. That’s impressive

 

[dukefan34]

Man didn't cover after up 71-50

 

[DrKlahn]

I looked up the away margins in 1999. Oh man.

 

[DrKlahn]

18, 10, 22, 19, 8, 46(!), 26, 20

 

[DrKlahn]

That's in conference. They also had the 4-point win over St. Johns in MSG, and a 32 point win against DePaul at United Center that I completely forgot about

 

[DrKlahn]

You should be able to guess the 46

 

[DrKlahn]

This is the kind of stat that explains why a school would think that college hockey is important.

Even before the shitheads came in and completely blew it, it looked like the starters were mostly running out the clock. Feels like this team really turns it off in the last five minutes of blowouts.

And in fairness, they have played a lot of games recently, so if they're coasting when they can it's smart and probably means they have a higher ceiling than kenpom indicates. Even if irritates us because it means we can't be our normal optimistic selves over Duke's future.
