Good game. Hall down by 2 with ball and :50 seconds leftOhio State is a lot bigger than Seton Hall down low, but I have a feeling this game is going to go down to the end.
Kalkbrenner is effective for Creighton against the mid majors, but he’s going to get dominated by Big East frontlines — particularly ours. On the plus side, Creighton’s freshmen look really good, Nembhard could be a future all conference player. Future is bright in Omaha but they’re going to struggle this year
This'll be the hardest week of the non-conf (other than B12 chalenge). Cupcake city for most teams after Sunday.In 2019-2020, the Big East went 103-25 OOC. That's a 80.5% win percentage. To get the equivalent win percentage, the league would need to go 98-23. I like round numbers so that's why I said at the beginning 100-21 should be the goal. 60 wins to go.
With Nze, Hodges and Tate out (combined 26.3 ppg last season), I thought Butler had no chance going into the game.Butler can't hold on to the ball vs Texas A&M. Right now, 13 TOs against 17 shots taken; got off only three shots in their last 12 possessions!
EDIT: Halftime TA&M 33 - Butler 21.
St Francis is owning the boards. Ridiculous sequences of them getting multiple shots on many possessions to open 2nd half.St. John's not looking so great so far.
St. John's doesn't play defense.
He's singlehandedly keeping them in the game. No slouch on defense.Champagnie basket hanging just now!
Offensive rebounds: SJU 5, St. Francis 15.Some crazy stats so far:
FG%: St. John's 54.9%, SFBK 44%
TOs: St. John's 7, STBK: 16
Despite this, Johnnies up only by 1 w/ 6 to go.
