You hear the phrase a lot this weekend: "Home for the Holidays." Whoever came up with this one knows little about Patriot League hoops. With the notable exception of Holy Cross, which is hosting William and Mary this afternoon, nobody is home for the holidays. They are off to exotic locations like Miami, Cincinnati, New Haven, Providence, Boston or Philly. That AU at Xavier game in Cincinnati is probably the most interesting matchup on the slate. But it is a 500-mile road trip from here and we have never been fond of cinnamon in our chili, much less our chili over macaroni. New Haven, on the other hand, offers a less interesting matchup. But it's less than half the drive and the pizza alone is worth the trip, so we're off to this afternoon's Bucknell-Yale game.

We'll update this afternoon (wonder if Sally's has wireless these days?). meanwhile, here are today's matchups:

AU at Xavier
| Lehigh at Harvard | Army at Brown | Bucknell at Yale | W&M at HC | Lafayette at Miami | Navy at Villanova
