One bad loss to DPC. Played #6 SJP very tough. I'd call losing to #5 C-M by 41 points on national TV pretty underwhelming! Everyone knew this season was going to be a rebuilding one for DBP. Most experts didn’t even have them in any NJ Top 5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true. Not a great year but there are no surprises. rest of NJ played below expectations not so much Bosco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC blow-out loss to C-M and SJR loss to St Anthony’s were indicative of yet another less than stellar season for NJHSFB as a whole. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 4 teams they lost to are all top 100-25 teams, leaving aside DePaul, which some had ahead of Bosco preseason. Bosco might be top 250-300. Almost by definition there will be no signature wins.

Testadura Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 St Anthony’s lost their 4th game. No playoffs. They beat Joes by 10ish. does Joes have a quality win? what is BC’s quality win? BC doesn’t even have a quality loss. Chaminade won by 41. We at least have 3 quality losses. erasmus is 7-2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They beat every team they were supposed to based on preseason expectations. No team should be penalized for losing to elite, OOS teams. If they scheduled weaker Hudson Catholic and Passaic Tech instead of #6 SJP and #132 AS, they’d be 6-3 and the #4 seed playing at home this weekend. But they did the right thing and scheduled the best competition as always. That’s my problem with the current playoff seeding process.

MickeyBern Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 My goodness, Donovan Catholic barely beat PC. 31-28. Bergen really won’t see competition until MetLife. Don’t know if that is good. Who ever emerges from the bottom half of the bracket will be battle worn but tested and ready. BC will not have been tested since the October 14th SJR game. Hard to keep teenagers focused.
