San Diego Could Have The Largest Conference Margin Of Defeat Again
Last night Gonzaga won 96-38 at San Diego. San Diego lost by 58, which is the biggest margin of defeat in a Division I Men's Basketball conference game since San Diego lost 91-33 at Brigham Young on February 20, 2016. If there are no more blowouts in conference play, San Diego will have the biggest margin of defeat in a conference game for the second consecutive season. The last conference game with a margin of victory of more than 58 was Louisville's 92-31 win over Rutgers on March 13, 2014 in the American Athletic Conference Quarterfinals. The last conference game before a conference tournament with a margin of victory of more than 58 was Virginia Commonwealth's 112-53 win hosting Towson on January 27, 2010.

It is all very confusing for us who don't live in California. It is easy to get all those San Diego schools mixed up. I had to look it up.

The University of San Diego is a private faith based school, like all schools in the WCC.

not to be confused with San Diego State University Aztecs, which play in the MWC, or the University of California-San Diego Tritons, which plays in Div II.

Shouldn't be that confusing, IMO.

All UC schools outside of Berkeley go by "UC_____". UC San Diego commonly goes by UCSD. And it is moving up to DI, contingent on a conference invite (which should be coming from the Big West).

SD St has always gone by SDSU, and has never been the University of San Diego ... so has never been referred to as USD.


Then there's the actual USD, the private Catholic school.

Yes, but I did not even know there was a private school called the University of San Diego that plays in the WCC. The onlly WCC schools I know are Gonzagga, BYU, St. Mary's and Pacific. All the original post said was that "San Diego" lost, which I thought meant UCSD, which is why I was confused.

Just like people that are not from Chicago probably mix up UC (University of Chicago) and UIC (University of Illinois at Chicago). To me its absurd people could mix up the 2 schools, but people do all the time.

And people said I was crazy when I claimed that much of the country does not know the names or locations of the schools in these conferences like the WCC and NBE, especially if you are outside the timezone.

This is a perfect example.

Funny thing is that Pacific is the newest WCC member. They've only played in the conference since 2013.

Fun fact: USD's soccer field (6,000) seats more than its basketball arena (5,100).

Kris Bryant of the Chicago Cubs is a USD alum, and he was also the league MVP in 2016. They have a few baseball alums.

When everyone mentions OU I always assume they're referring to Ohio University. Ya know, the Mid American Conference member. And I'm outside the time zone 05-stirthepot

The Toreros had a magical season in Bill Grier's first year. They made the West Coast a 3-bid league and pulled a shocking upset of heavy favorite Connecticut in the 1st round.

The heart and soul of that team was a PG named Brandon Johnson. Johnson went rogue his next 2 years (he threw games IIRC) and the program never recovered.

Well that puts things in perspective. I was going to get on this thread and brag that Rice literally hasn't been blown out all season. We could be one of the few teams left outside the top 25 that hasn't lost a game by more than 10.

But @Pitt was one of our 10-point L's.
So I don't think we are going to be waiting by the phone for an at-large :)
