[stever20]

so which one is more surprising?

St John's by 33 over Syracuse
Providence losing by 20 to BC

[FenwayFriar]

This is embarrassing. Providence always with the letdowns

No doubt this is an embarrassing loss but what are these other letdowns the Friars "always" have that you speak of? Anxious to hear all about them.

PC made a run toward end but too little too late. Didn't see game how did they let BC score 50 in the 2nd half? yikes

Providence hasn't won at BC since the 2003-2004 season. If Friar fans were acting confident about this one, then they haven't been paying attention. The same year Providence won the Big East tournament against Doug McDermott's squad and hung tight with UNC in the NCAA tournament, they lost at BC. Providence look asleep the middle of the second half. BC's guards played well and they hit a lot of threes.

Rpi went from 30 to 46, not too bad...

[stever20]

where this will hurt PC is they're 9-0 at home, but only 1-3 away from home. Going to have to get a few road wins to have any shot of making the tourney.

PC was the one non top 4 team that if they finished at 8-10, they would have had a real shot at making the tourney. No longer is that the case.
