This one’s easy to analyze.  Pretty good team from big school plays bad team from small school.  Small school needs money, offers basketball team as sacrificial possum on the interstate highway of ACC basketball.  End result is some Longwood Lancers splatter pattern all over the Terps windshield en route to the largest margin of victory in Comcast Center history, edging out a 50-point win over Hampton from 2003.

Sean Mosely led the Terps with 21 points and a perfect 8-8 shooting night; he was also a perfect 4-4 from the stripe, so the ball literally went in every time he put it up.   But that’s not what you care about.  How did the benchwarmers do?   I’m delighted to report that they all got in and all got on the score board.  Forward and reggae superstar David Pearman netted 3 points while Rudyesque walk-on Ersin Levent sank a free throw with about a minute left to get a 1 in his points column.

And there you have it. A speed bump at most, but at least it was of the record-setting, bench-clearing variety.
