2016-17 Games of note:
A few days late; I'll apply the usual disclaimer that I put at the top each year (because there is always the 1 guy/gal): If all you care about is UD basketball and believe that as long as UD takes care of themselves, it doesn't matter what their opponents do, then this is NOT the thread for you, so don't start belly aching. While technically you are correct, an undefeated UD season would end in a national title, I'm going to make the assumption that there will be bumps along the road, other teams to jump in the rankings, or just flat out games across the landscape that are worth paying attention to. Like the last few seasons, hopefully we can compile those here. I'll thank all in advance that typically help keep this thread moving along with observations about games played, UD's opponents, and just picking up the slack.
So yesterday:
Nebraska knocked off Sacramento St.
UCLA (hopefully/maybe future opponent) won their 2nd game of the season in easy fashion.
Duquesne
lost at Penn St.
Washington, who IIRC was suppose to be good w/ a highly touted young super frosh, lost to Yale.
Monday:
Hoops marathon gets going tonight, a slew of A10 games and a few OOC opponents play as well:
#4 Nova vs #15 Purdue (+2)
Marist (+21.5) @ #23
Rhody
Ol Dirty minon (+4.5) @
Richmond
UMass
(+10) @ Ole Miss (kind of interested to see how UMass' young talent handles the roady)
NYIT @
Fordham
Columbia (+6.5) @ St Joeseph's (the A10 version, not the D2 school that also appears on UD's schedule)
Detroit (+12.5) @ ETSU (Michael Harmon ain't walking thru that door)
Southern Utah (+9.5) @
Saint Louis
Eastern Washington (+17) @ Northwestern (ironically neither north nor west of EWU)
San Diego St (+8.5) @ #14 Gonzaga, not sure about SDSU this year, but they are usually pretty good, I'll be well asleep by the time this one tips off

Rose Hill is the name given to the site in 1787 by Robert Watts, a wealthy New York merchant, in honor of his family's ancestral home of the same name in Scotland.
