PrintThe Madness officially has begun!
Several conference tournaments already have been afflicted with "upset disorder" thus far, but none are crazier than that what happened in the America East Tournament on Sunday night.
No. 1 seed Stony Brook looked like it was poised to cruise through the tourney and secure an automatic bid, after blowing through the regular season with a 13-3 record.
But our old friends from Puerto Rico, the fourth-seeded Boston University Terriers, put a wrinkle in those plans with a 70-63 upset victory last night.
Now Boston U. is one win away from the Big Dance. Who knew?

It was 1 loss out of 6 total
and only 1 game out of 30 total, so it’s effects really aren’t extra-ordinarily painful. Except the fact that we lost that game BSOIBJ$W$B$#)BJREBJ$@

I know...that loss hurts really bad
We would have gone the whole season without a bad loss. I shut it off towards the end because I couldn’t stand to what the seniors shoot so bad anymore. I just hope we can redeem ourselves and win the big 12 tournament. After all this, I stil think if we did that and Duke doesn’t win the ACC and Ohio State doesn’t win the big 10, we could be the fourth #1. Mind boggling.
Wildcat for life
