Watch Depaul win that, even going away, to further make the loss all the more baffling.

Is Raftery not the tier 1 announcer for Big East games? Why would they not have him on the Creighton/Hall game tonight? He's the best Big East guy by far (sorry donny)

DePaul did beat Marquette at Marquette...

DePaul did beat Marquette at Marquette...

i think that says more about marquette than depaul. theyre not playing up to their talent level. biggest disappointment in the league this year

I guess we want Creighton and Marquette to get wins under the assumption that who knows what the rest of our schedule looks like. And I guess St John’s too? I know we beat DePaul twice but think I’d prefer for our bad loss to look less bad

Just a 22 hour turnaround between games for Raftery (and 20 if it were the Seton Hall game).

Chicago is just a three-hour drive from Indianapolis while getting to Newark involves a flight. Much easier logistically.

I’m rooting for
Creighton
Marquette
St. Johns

Shootout in Newark. The pirates leading the jays 54-44 at the half.

Seton Hall is good....they are odd & enigmatic. But they are good

 

[UconnU]

Holy crap is Creighton going to win this game?? They were down double digits nearly the entire game.

I turned it off with Creighton down 16. That will teach me.

That game was insane. Seton Hall Twitter was talking so much crap. We’re back into 3rd place! Lol

 

[ASweet3781]

Providence and Marquette tied with 45 secs left. Seems every game goes down to the wire in this league.

Exactly. Seton game on 2/6 is huge.

 

[Hoophound]

Watching PC and Marquette. Another great game, tied with .45
to go. I love being back in the Big East.

Just not as good as Creighton. 😀

I love having a reason to watch these games.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

Watching these Big East teams, I still don't understand how Butler has 4 league wins. That team is slow, hot garbage.

 

[UconnU]

Tough year for Hall so far. This was supposed to be their year. They’re looking at a total rebuild next year replacing 4 starters. Same goes for Providence to a lesser extent.

 

[UconnU]

Not a Big East game but worth noting how good Baylor football is.

 

[TyroneShoo]

Just not as good as Creighton. 😀

I don’t know what they are. They are weird. They are good....then 20 mins later Not. But they have legit talent . They are weird

Yeah they've looked terrible in the two games we've played them. Not sure how Creighton lost to them, even without Zegarowski.

Yet, in this case Bill Raftery was not at the game site.
