With Grambling's win tonight over Alcorn St, I believe Cornell now holds the longest current D1 losing streak. Southern Utah is the only other school without a D1 win this year but they won 2/23/13, a week more recently than Cornell's last win.

Just think how much publicity we'll get when we finally win a game!

There's no such thing as bad publicity?  ::popcorn::

Boston College and Steve Donahue made #2 on the ESPN highlights playing a day later at Georgia Tech (snow). BC goes up 71-70 with :03 to play, Donahue calls time out to settle his team (Tech has none), lets Tech score a long trey to win. BC falls to 6-18.

Wow. That's almost a firing offense right there (unless he was worried that his team was about to get a technical).

Unfortunately I see no way Donahue keeps that job.  While he got plenty of time here to turn things around, the ACC is a different story.

BC is staring at a 24 or 25 loss season.  I like Steve, but he's down to his last 8 games as coach there.

Put his name into Google. Second suggestion is "Steve Donahue contract".  Sixth is "Steve Donahue hot seat".  Seventh is "Steve Donahue fired".

In better news, the Big Red their first D1 game.  70-67 over Dartmouth.  Cornell loses a 15 point second half lead, but I will take it.

Columbia is in double OT with Harvard. Didn't see that coming.

Did you see the call that sent it to double OT?  Rosenberg is called for a charge that wipes out the apparent game winner with two seconds left.  If Columbia had fans, there would have been a riot.

Back to losing ways, Cornell falls to Harvard 67-44.  Now 2-20 for the season.

Beating an undefeated #1 on the road may not save Donahue's job, but it's a nice night for him.

Came here to write the same thing. Good for him.

62-59 in overtime. Syracuse had some close calls the last few games but who would have expected Boston College to be the one to take them down?

A little to this party myself, but I'm happy for Steve.
