Bear with me. Relying a lot on a memory that's beginning to fade with age here.
Tonight's matchup should/will be pretty one sided.
But it brings to mind a Boneyard event of long ago. ISTR that it had something to do with somebody winning a box at the Civic Center at a fund raising auction, and we made it into a social event for the 'yard. The opponent? For some reason, I THINK it was Brown. But this might have been 20 years ago, and the only thing memorable about the game other than getting to meet a lot of yarders, was that it was even worse than one sided. I think JC had the walk-ons in with 10 minutes to go.
I expect a game like that.
If LIU plays the game of their collective lives, they might come within 25 or 30 points.
The spread is 40 points.
LIU lost their last 5 by an average of 18.4 points. UConn won their last 5 by and average of 17.6
The biggest difference between today's game and that long ago game against a team that may or may not have been Brown, will be the number of Boneyard denizens in attendance.
