Fox PC vs Xavier

[MexicoHusky]

Sheesh

Why is Xavier not ranked? 10-2? I saw them a couple weeks obliterate Oklahoma.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Perfect execution on that last set. Great pass by Kunkel.

 

[UconnU]

Omg that ball movement. That walk call was HORRIBLE if I was a PC fan I’d be pissed.

Because they aren't that good.

 

[Dooooooomed]

Brutal. I almost feel bad for the Friars.

 

[UconnU]

Fox sports knew what they were doing by showing that Blonde at the end

They were ranked 22 but dropped 2 straight to Hall and Creighton(who are good teams). I think they should be ranked and Hall should be receiving votes, but no one understands the thought process for AP voting.

Ending goes to show its better to run something rather than predictably ISO in end of game situations. Perfectly executed set. Both teams will be tough to beat.

73-66 a min left ref calls that, still should have won.....on to marquette

 

[superjohn]

That was more brutal than our loss to Creighton. I think Providence was up 8 with a minute left.

Came back from breakfast just in time to watch the last play. I love Big East basketball.

Sorry, that sucked. You guys are better than them but Xavier seems to win every close game at the buzzer year after year.

I hope our guys were watching this game. Between watching that and the Creighton loss hopefully they learn how important it is to close out games. The game isn't over until it's over.

Watson has got some good feet and hands today

Always has, his issue is passing out the double team.

I called it, I said they were going to hit a buzzer beater.

 

[UconnU]

That walk call are soo horrendous, at such a bad time, that PC fans have the right to complain.

 

[PChoops]

Marquette is going to be another close one on Tuesday after the collapse against you guys......here we go again. Only comfortable game we had in the BE so far is Butler.

Not sure if you are willing to chat about it, but what would you say is up with your squad. Looked like you had the best guard and big. Combined with a solid shooting night. Do you guys have defensive issues? Not trying to be rude. Mostly trying to understand who our opponents are.

Naji Marshall 35-footer still doesn’t make sense.

 

[Jay-Bone]

Xavier lead most of the game. I thought they had it in the bag up 5 around the 3 min mark and then PC hit 3 threes. PC was up 73-66, and then PC did what PC does, made mistakes. They have talent but lack execution.

I thought the travel call was an offensive push off. Scruggs didn't even have a good game.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Colby Jones is one impressive freshman. He's one of those four-year Swiss army knife players who starts off as a great depth piece and ends up being super valuable. Reminds me a lot of JP Macura.

Since Cooley has been at PC they have been one of the better teams defensively in the BE. The rotation on the last possession looked good...... Jones made a clutch shot. Reeves had 2 clutch shots this yr against Seton Hall and DePaul to win the game, I guess we were due for one.

Love the 11am Sunday big east start

Sorta weird having BE hoops on at 9am here in the mountain time zone, but I'm not complaining.

Duke and Watson are easily two of the best players in the Big East but they have far worse point guard problems than UConn does.
