Big East Conference Game Thread- February

Need a Marquette victory today

Butler on a 13-0 run against Providence at hinkle. 13-4 timeout Providence.

Wouldn’t mind being the 3 seed in the BET and getting Providence as the 2 on our side

Yeah, for sure. That would be a small silver lining to losing to Nova on Tuesday, as that win would set Nova up to get the #1 seed relatively easily. Best case scenario obviously is we beat Nova and Providence loses a couple games to fall to #2 anyway.

 

[BleedHuskyBlu]

21-8 Butler. Providence looks lost on both ends of the floor

 

[Hurleyman216]

Providence starting to play more like their metrics than their national ranking. Let’s hope Butler buried them by 30

Lol providence

Butler just beats random good teams in Hinkle every year.

 

[Dooooooomed]

Enjoyable Sunday.

 

[BleedHuskyBlu]

32-15 Butler.

Providence defense looking very poor can’t stop the drive at all

 

[gsmooth]

Wow what a horse—- performance by Providence. Croswell and Watson are getting sealed by Golden when Butler guards penetrate

Who is this Providence player Fonts with the middle aged bald spot look? Calmly nails a 3 and looks like he should be playing in my Wednesday night JCC league.

 

[awfuldan]

Does Providence have a walk-on in right now? 5th year senior who barely plays, just drilled a big 3.

Providence has a huge advantage at the center spot and they just keep jacking contested jump shots.

 

[awfuldan]

Fonts for Providence has played 58 minutes total in 5 years at PC. For context, Diggins has played 44 minutes for us this year alone.

Cooley searching for a spark with Durham out I guess. I kinda like the move.

 

[Hurleyman216]

The Big East is putting PC on notice this week… “no, you’re not the best team in the league”. PC is in serious jeopardy of going into a slide if they lose this game which could push them back toward the bubble. Incredible to say for the #8 team in the AP this late in the year, but unfortunately it’s true

He's a "preferred walk-on" I think.

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Someone mentioned on the ‘yard a few days ago that Ryan Hawkins won’t put up points on UConn when the good guys travel to Omaha. We better defend him better/differently then. He looked mighty good in scoring 25 last night.

Most important thing is that nobody posts a game day Haiku calling for "Hawkins" to have a big game. MUST be specific in the rematch.

 

[HeGotGame]

Had to take PC -4 2h, but it is a bet I will happily lose

Providence has 21 wins; they are cleanly in the field. The worst they could finish is 21-8.

They’re not headed to the bubble

On the other hand, one could get a lot of mileage out of calling for Ryan to have a bad game, considering Creighton starts three dudes with that name (Nembhard, Hawkins, Kalkbrenner).

 

[Hurleyman216]

They’re not headed to the bubble

KenPom says otherwise…44 and dropping. Usually top 40 teams in KenPom are a “lock” after that it gets dicey. Their record is super inflated to say the least.

oh oh. providence struggling

Bubble? wth! They can lose every game from here till the tourney and they will not be a bubble team. you are crazy

Stop. Providence is clearly making the NCAAT

They’d have the most interestingresume of all time. I’d love to see that happen for the social media meltdown alone
