Big East OOC tracker

Lame! The pro argument is about the potential of a flagship university in the original Big East footprint.

Remember when UCONN was middling AAC team losing to Wagner and Northeastern. Oh those benefits of a conference upgrade.

Lame?! I wasn't voicing opinion. I made a factual statement.

 

[Husky68]

Come to think of it, me too!

And the best part, aside from Providence, I really enjoyed rooting for the Big East teams!

Must admit I even rooted for Providence.

FIFY: Oh those benefits of a conference coaching upgrade.

Got a chuckle from this:

Why are you so desperate for UMass? Their addition brings nothing we can't have already in OCC if we wanted.

UMASS couldn't get an upgrade at coach to go along with the conference upgrade? I'm pretty sure Hurley is on record no Sanogo without the conference upgrade. Same with our Center recruit for next year.

Not desperate for their inclusion at all. But when people start talking about adding a 12th team i'll give my opinion just like everyone else.

UMASS' untapped potential sure beats the hell out of St Louis or Dayton (good grief). Additions should be based on potential not current rankings.

Plus if you have been a Big East fan since its start like I have been restoring the original Big East footprint has appeal......and saying UMASS only brings the Amherst market is as dumb as saying UCONN only brings the Storrs market.

and UMASS is Rival, get over it.

No, it is current value and performance otherwise you are asking us to subsidize them. UMass has none. It is unfortunate for them, but true.

UMass' time has come and gone

St. Bonny down 10 to clemson at halftime. would stink if theyre not ranked when we play.

As long as they end up top 50 NET at the end of the season and we win, it'll be Q1.

the casual fan likes to see little numbers on the schedule next to the teams we play.

if St. B loses then auburn would be the only ranked opponent left on the OOC. we need to beat them and MSU/Loyola so we also get a crack at #9 Baylor.

UMASS literally paid for their 15 minutes of fame.

I have a feeling this year is going to be like 2019-20 in the Big East. Almost every conference game was a quad 1 or 2 game, giving everyone plenty of chances to build their resume. If a team has a winning record in the Big East, they will be getting consideration for a bid.

 

[Hi-Low]

Bonnies nice win vs Clemson in SC at Shriners Classic....they play winner of WVU / Marquette in finals. Bonnies will be a handful in Dec, they start 5 seniors, looking forward to playing them though.

Our OOC schedule is shaping up to be pretty good with Atlantis, Bonnies & WVU....you wouldn't know it at this point, right now our SOS is 356 (3rd worst in country).

I wish we had 1 home game against a good OOC opponent though since the 5 good OOC games we have are all neutral or road.

The best season the reconfigured Big East has had was 2019-20... and it all went down the drain due to COVID19. The league was gonna get 7/10 in the NCAA that year. I'm glad its looking like this year may end up even a better one.

32-4. Need two more wins tonight.

 

[444JR]

Marquette in a tough battle with West Virginia. Currently 41-33 with 2:43 left in the first half

 

[auror]

Marquette making a run, down 2 with 14 min left.

And they just took the lead. 13-0 run I think?

Kolek and Morsell leading the way. We're stacked, but I wanted Kolek on the transfer market.

 

[bluestreak]

GTown is handling Siena. Up 18 with 3 min left.

Now up 1.

 

[shizzle787]

33-4.

 

[mussels]

Good game.

WVU was 5 of 7 from behind the arc in the first half. Didn’t think it would last and it didn’t. Each team has had stretches where they looked really good.

 

[BGesus4]

Marq hitting some big shots

It’s fascinating to me that Morsell left a ranked Maryland (although prob not for long) team for Marq

 

[shizzle787]

34-4. Three HUGE wins tonight. 8-3 against the P5.
