Boston University Terriers 2026-2027 season…insert clever title here!

Quick sidebar…oddest place you’ve ever watched a BU game…
I got off a cruise ship in Puerto Rico to watch BU lose to NoDak in the 97 finals…at the Hooters in old San Juan. Had to pay the bartender handsomely and then listen as 200 people came up and said “who the heck is watching hockey?”.

Standing on a chair in the BU Student Union as we beat the Russians in Lake Placid. We were packed like sardines - all straining to see a tube TV considered tiny by today’s standards.
 
I just read the latest terrier hockey blog post (thank you all who put that together) and was surprised by the bu hockey stats game 2 comparison. It seems, based on the stats, game 2 was more evenly played than the score suggests. If so, that is good news. Does anyone who was able to watch agree with that assessment?

Yep, I watched and thought it was pretty close, except for the score.

I had to be in Phoenix, Arizona for work one year. One night I was there, the USNDTP was in town to play ASU so I went to that game, wore my jersey. That was the year four BU guys were on the team - Keller, etc. I think. Anyway, the next night I went to a Buffalo Wild Wings as the BU game was on NBCSN, sat at the bar that had a million TVs behind it. I asked the bartender to put the BU game on one of them, that I would be sitting there eating dinner and having a few beverages. He did. About an hour later, some jackbag walks up to the bartender and demands that he change the channel of the TV I was watching to one of the 387 college basketball games on that night and the bartender goes "Sorry dude, that TV is for her." and points to me. He got a nice big tip.

Another year I was in Seattle for Super Bowl weekend. It was the year after the Patriots beat Seattle in the game. I went to this sports bar across the street from my hotel wearing my "The Butler did it with a pick in the end zone" t-shirt. The bar had DirecTV so I gave the guy the channel for NESN to see if his system had it. It did. The next night was the opening round of the Beanpot, so, same thing. I went over at 4:00, sat at the bar, the bartender put the TV on NESN and I ate dinner and had a few tasty beverages. Oh, that was the night the power went out at TD Garden. Does anyone remember that I had to text a few people to find out what was going on.
 
Trap game feels right, especially coming off that 5-0 at Michigan State. Harvard's been getting 35 shots a game, they just haven't been finishing them. BU gave up 72 shots in East Lansing, so I wouldn't want to test whether Harvard's luck turns tonight. I'll take the under on 1,800, tote bag or not.
 
When we didn’t score with all that pressure in the first 10 minutes you knew Harvard was scoring first. Crazy
