-- In a game that was otherwise close statisically, the Eagles crushed us on the glass. It's true that Boston College is a good offensive rebounding team, but when you let someone push you around and grab more than half of their own misses, that speaks as much to your effort level as it does to their skill level. I mean, John Oates had 8 rebounds in 21 minutes. He is not a good rebounder, but he hustled and got rewarded. Where was our hustle?

Here's a fun sequence from the second half:

MISSED JUMPER by RICE, TYRESE
REBOUND (OFF) by MARSHALL, Sean
MISSED LAYUP by DUDLEY, Jared
