    Well based on previous QF games last year at Agganis against a far more appealing opponent than Merrimack with a far better BU team that barely exceeded 3806, lack of seats likely wouldn't be the issue. And the AE game would NOT be at the Roof, the rule says there must be 3k seats. My guess is the BB game would be at WBA or there'd be a doubleheaer at Agganis.

        I have this weird... I wouldn't call it "respect," but "ability to coexist"... toward (most) BU fans this year. Is this a sign of increased maturity on my part, or of me being a worse BC fan?
        Could it be you just stayed clear of those store brand Frosted Flakes knock offs?

            Umm... at least in my 20 years of BU involvement, every time we have hosted the AE championship game, we have done it at The Roof. And I'm not going to do the research here, but I think we have done that in the post Agganis era... so there is precedent that it would be held at the Roof... and it makes sense. They would want a sold out game with a loud atmoshpere, which would most likely happen at The Roof.

            Edit: some quick research shows that we have not hosted the game since Agganis... but for sure I don't ever remember it in WBA.

              The last time we hosted was 2003 and the game was at WBA.

              Edit: Never mind it was at Case... wikipedia fail.

                    But as I posted earlier, it can no longer be held at the Roof.

                      This game is OVA. Fun discussion while it lasted.

                        I just looked it up. It was Karl Fogel, and he coached NE from 86-94. BU and NE had a really heated bball rivalry for a stretch. They met in the conference championship 3 yrs in a row (85, 86 and 87).

                        It was spring of 88 I think. NE was on its way towards its poorest season in a while, and BU was on its way to Chapel Hill to play Duke in the NCAAs. (In the brand-new Dean Dome. Yours truly was in attendance. ) Anyway, the game had been heated; then there was a scuffle. Coach Jarvis was trying to break up a couple of guys, when Fogel came over and shoved him, in a "keep your hands of my guy" kind of way. When Coach Jarvis saw it was the other coach who had shoved him, he went off. It was the, "Oh no you did not just do that, and now we're gonna throw down" kind. No punches landed, but it was intense.

                          UNH is now entering the discussion for fewest points scored in an AE tournament game... they have 33 and the record is 37, haha.

                          Quarterfinals at Walter Brown.... Maybe next year :/

                            UNH is awful. Haha, Maine lost to them yesterday.

                              When guys named Calhoun and Pitino coach your teams, this tends to happen.
