You and everyone else must be over the moon with the success this season.Originally posted by Greg Ambrose on 3/7/2010The fact that you BC fans revel in the superiority of your team in an admittedly weak league leads me to believe you will be more sorely disappointed when the end comes than we will.

On another note, when is the last time only one of the 'big four' teams made the tourney? I would think it's been at least 30 years.Originally posted by BobbyBrady
Crosby probably wouldn't even be on BC's top two lines next year

Originally posted by Drew S. View PostWhen Maine was good I would have been bitterly disappointed if they didn't make the NCAA tourney(which never actually happened). It's surprising to see you guys so satisfied with what I would consider a bad year.
Imagine if Maine, back under Walsh, had like massive NCAA infractions and had 11 of their top 15 kids ineligible to play. Hard to fathom, I know, but... that's kind of like what BC had to deal with.Originally posted by Greg Ambrose on 3/7/2010The fact that you BC fans revel in the superiority of your team in an admittedly weak league leads me to believe you will be more sorely disappointed when the end comes than we will.

Re: Boston College Eagles 2016-2017 Season Thread
What does discipline mean? Fun fact for the day:
So it's no secret that BC has generally been a very NOT SMART team this year. They were penalized to high heaven and we can argue about each call but I will tell you first hand how not smart this BC team was.
- I found an older thread (Thanks SteveF, yes he is still alive) where I had tracked the PPF and PPA. After some updating, the numbers show that this year's BC team was the worst BC team in the last 18 years in regards to differential of PPF and PPA. They were -44. That is over an extra PP a game for the opposition.
- While there was an outlier here and there, the past 4 years have been a part of the bottom half of that 18 years, in fact, those 4 seasons are among the worst 8 seasons in differential out of the past 18 seasons. ZERO POSTSEASON TROPHIES.
- Average differential has been -6.83 over the past 18 seasons but take out the last four and it was just -1.93 differential. So this 4 year stretch just increased that number by 254% in the wrong direction. Think about that.Last edited by Nick Papagiorgio; 03-20-2017, 01:03 PM.Originally posted by Greg Ambrose on 3/7/2010The fact that you BC fans revel in the superiority of your team in an admittedly weak league leads me to believe you will be more sorely disappointed when the end comes than we will.

Originally posted by Nick Papagiorgio View PostNo satisfaction from me. However, given the losses coming in and the expectations as a result of that exodus, yes, they did exceed expectations. I had them penciled in for 18-20 wins personally and expected a rough season. They won 21 and progressed to the HE final for the first time since 2012 and somehow got a piece of the HE RS trophy in spite of the empty feeling of blowing a large lead and having a horrendous record vs the teams with which they shared it.
