I still think bringing Thad Matta back was a mistake by Butler, but he got a team to put up a fight against a good Marquette team, and Butler was missing one of its best players.
The mistake was inviting them into the conference at all. I call them “Butlane” now, as they add nothing but a nice old gym.

Hope Kimani is more interested in Fab Five than St Johns HC position..

Creighton did a nice job with their fans alternating blue and white sections

I don't have the volume on for the Creighton game. What happened to the shot clock?

Creighton dribbles into Lane with about 30 sec left and Nova gets called for a touch foul. Nova comes back downs and their guard almost gets tackled in the lane by Creighton and it leads to a turnover…no foul called.

UConn will see the same there. Horrid place to play for opposing teams. Almost always 8 on 5. I'd say Nova got screwed but it's pretty much as expected this year at certain arenas (X, PC and Creighton being the most egregious).

Officiating 100% changed the outcome of that game. Nova hits a tough 3 to take a 1 point lead and then it was all free throws for Creighton. Gotta make a team make a winning play but they handed Creighton 2 FT’s for what should have been a no call.

Nova has to be the best below .500 team in the country. The majority of last year’s final 4 team and they added a top 10 draft pick and they haven’t been able to stack many wins in this league. There’s a chance Creighton will be ranked Monday which would mean 5 teams in the Top 25 for the Big East. I honestly think the league is better than the Big 12…we beat both Big 12 teams we played, Marquette throttled Baylor. I think this league is going to do some damage in the tournament. Xavier, Marquette and Creighton are all tough matchups for a lot of teams.

...and hopefully UConn will be a tough matchup for a lot of teams...we'll see!
