When was it? It hasn't happened since I've been following the league.

I believe Drexel over Memphis in 96

 

[mainejeff]

Yes, the Malik Rose team, right?

 

[NU Hoop Fan]

Yep, then Drexel played Syracuse (Which went to the Final Four that year, I believe) real close.

For those of us ignorant on AE History, is this a misprint, or is there some kind of background that goes along with it?

The seeds are flip-flopped, but yes, BU got their arses handed to them by the Golden Hurricane.

oh ic.. what round was that in?

 

[NU Hoop Fan]

First round. Game wasn't as close as the final score. I think that was the Tulsa team with Schea Seals.

Right you are, NUHF. Seals was pretty good in that game. I think the key to that game was shutting down Tunji, and that's exactly what they did; he scored only 7 points and was a non-factor. Even though Tunji was always small for a PF, I felt that this performance on a stage, when many people were picking BU to upset, hurt his chances of getting a look from the NBA.

My personal highlight of the game was when Peter Scott came in at the end, and hit a bucket to keep the margin of victory below 30.
