My apologies for failing to put up the Bulls/Stony Brook game.  Don't know how it slipped.  As mentioned in UConn post, I was a bit distracted last couple weeks:

15 minutes ago, Brad said:

Sorry, I can't believe I forgot to post the prediction thread after staying up clicking on Twitter beyond 9 p.m. on Sunday night curious to see how the Bulls fit in to the CBI.  I'll get things totaled up and we will have a thread for the Monday game.  I have been in study mode for three weeks in order to pass a test for an industry license - which I passed yesterday.   My attention (including watching the game on Tuesday, has not been present lately).

Again, sorry, let's have some fun with this one!
