First game I’ve had chance to see this year. Really impressed with graves. Really stepping up.  Tough mballa with three fouls. Hope we can hang on. 

Arguably our biggest game ever?  At least with last year we knew we were getting one more year with the core team.

ill be at a bulls watch party in Nashville

i don’t want it to be over today. Let’s go bulls! 

Syracuse beating duke and WV beating kansas should help us a lot. I say #14 if not higher.  

Too bad about Marquette loss we’d be eyeing top 5 right now. 

Congrats to Syracuse. 

Ed this is a safe space

Crowd looked and sounded great on TV.

Definitely going to be re watching the last 10 minutes of this ones a few times tomorrow and tonight

I did exactly this :)!

To be honest felt like we were a little overrated but was proven wrong tonight. Go bulls!

Those ESPN+ announcers Ben Wagner and crew were brutal. The brought the house down on a goaltend and claimed SBU didn't get a call, but the fouls were terribly lopsided in the 2nd half and they made a brutal traveling call on CJ after he was pushed. . 

I loved the “dagger” three pointer to get them within 15...

4-9 on FTs, gotta do better.

This announcing combo is awful. I dont like these split crews. You can clearly feel the awkwardness

Yeah they are pretty bad Especially the one dude who gets overly excited every time smallest thing happens. 

In the penalty already five minutes in.   Lol.   

No flow to game so far. Refs whistle happy. At least we are up.  We are def looking the more athletic team thus far. Getting all the 50-50 balls which is a good sign on the road. 

When I went to school I felt a bit of rivalry with both Canisius and Niagara.  I don't remember anything about St Bonaventure, so my vote is no, but maybe things have changed.

What?  I don't know what you're saying.

We are playing Canisius. 

We asked Niagara to play and they said no.

Live chats happen for every football and MBB game at BullRun.  Heck...there was a thread for the first WBB game.

Normally there are hundreds of comments.  There was 100+ for today's game.

I saw that comments thing.   That is not what i would describe as a chat, but it is cool nonetheless.  I wasn't saying something didn't exist anyway, just that this place used to be more active.

Given social media, reddit, Bull Run, etc it's much easier to discuss Bulls on other platforms.  Not a knock to admin or anybody else, it just seems like across the board message boards are getting less popular.

I graduated a few years ago and I'm probably one of the youngest members on here.

This is very true.

We used to have a good thing going here.  Active enough we had live chats going during some games.  Actually had some pickup UBFan basketball games over at sweethome basketball court.  xxDerek knows about that he used to join.

I remember the days of the football team losing to Colgate and Shaggy and Tony Hawk being the halftime show. 

Also remember the first sea of blue against Kent State. I attribute that game as being the beginning of this long journey. That set the foundation. Shoutout to all the mighty maniacs. 

And yea I agree I feel the boards were more active back then. But hey let’s get it rolling now. 

I remember my Sophomore year we beat someone in Football. It was our first MAC win I believe in a couple of years, and we all rushed the field, (all 25 of us).  There were more football players than fans jumping around.  Lol.  Good times...

I Remember UB Football being #1 on ESPN Bottom ten for a few years running. And losing to Colgate.  Also Screech came my freshmen year, and he was a dick to me when I tried to get a picture with him.  I've disliked him since.

Wow!! I remember how "exciting" it was in 2005-2006 (Calvin Cage senior year) when we received one Top 25 vote. (Does anyone else remember).  Thought this day would never come.    

 

Calvin Cage and BJ Walker were in my freshmen year English class.  I remember BJ Walker was pretty damn good, but ended up transferring to Nebraska?  That team could have been even better.

Basketball team was 5-23 (2-16 MAC) my freshman year, Football team was 1-11 (0-8 MAC).  Amazing how far they have come.

I am surprised this board isn't more active with all the recent success of football and basketball team.  I feel like it used to be more active back in those days.

Very tough matchup honestly especially after the wvu win and the players getting texts about being top 25 from friends and family.

Need to keep our heads in the game tonight

Siu also sees that UB is coming in ranked and them and their fans would love nothing more than to knock off a top 25

This is a good point.   They will be ready for us.

The line has dropped from -4.5 to -3.  That is not a good sign if nobody is injured.

Hope I'm wrong and UB can hang around in the top 25 the rest of the season.

yeah I need a link to game too.  If anyone has it.  Out of town, not playing here.
