January - Other Big East Games

[jibsey]

Dixon just got about 8 seconds in the middle of the paint and then the refs gave him a foul with 1 sec on the shot clock in a 1 possession game.

Fine, but wouldn't it be nice if we had someone able to do that?

Vile

This was expected- Villanova owns MSG. 27-3 heading into tonight in last 8 years or so.

 

[Edward Sargent]

Curbelo is so out of control.

St. John's is much better with Pinzon and Storr. The Mathis injury led them to back into those guys.

Curbelo's looked in control against us though

Because our defense is atrocious

 

[storrsroars]

Keyshawn Nelson on DePaul was in corner, lined up for a contested three, another DePaul guy set up a screen, so Nelson blew by his guy and posterized the dude in the paint.

Jackson can do that if Sanogo isn't clogging up the paint.

 

[Hurleyman216]

Gibson going off on PC. He’s a nice player

The anti-Sanogo posts get more and more inane by the day.

Providence is going into full flop and flail mode, so Depaul is going to come up short, but I like the way Depaul plays. Stubblefield would be dangerous if he could get actual Big East caliber players.

Marquette is running over seton hall. At seton hall. I guess we tired them out.

21 TOs for Hall with more than seven minutes left. They're shooting 50% and rebounding is equal, but Hall has a third fewer attempts than Marquette as they can't hold onto the ball.

Other people might say, hey, here's a play we can run for Jackson. But you do you.

Yes it was humbling watching Marquette destroy Seton Hall on the same court UConn blew a 17 pt lead.

And Nova at St. John’s

They have 3 Big East wins, 1 less than us, and just knocked off Xavier - that’s not dangerous!? Fair to say Depaul has Big East caliber players. If you actually followed the Big East teams, you might know that they played without TWO centers for a long stretch when they really struggled early. Given our own struggles, imagine had we not had Clingan for that same stretch? That wouldn’t mean we don’t have big east caliber players, but our record may not be that much better than Depaul. They are better than their record suggests. That’s not to say it’s a not major uphill climb trying to rebuild that program. Throw in a dumb providence take to boot. I’d stick with just commenting on our own team.

He has to try and justify his 5-15 prediction for Providence somehow.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Made the mistake of switching from the Penn State/Rutgers game to the DePaul/Georgetown game...the lack of crowd, the cavernous echo...bummed me out...

Just want the Hoyas to turn it around!

 

[REB1094]

Wahab looks reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally bad tonight

 

[Kathy]

Thought they were gonna give it away from the FT line - but they held on.

 

[MJ1]

Georgetown wins!! Watch out, this means another extension for Coach Ewing.

 

[prankster]

So much enjoyment, watching Akok having such a good game.

 

[UCFan1513]

Too bad it had to be DePaul. Would’ve been much funnier if it was PC or Xavier or someone

 

[BugsyCT]

Not easy to go from winning the Big East Tourney to losing your next 29 Big East games. There's a feat that will likely never be duplicated. Glad Ewing & Co. (and Akok) finally ended the losing streak though.

 

[willie99]

Maybe they'll go easy on us now

 

[UCTitleTown]

I actually enjoyed their long losing streak. Am I the only one?

 

[bigeasttrol]

Too bad it had to be DePaul. Would’ve been much funnier if it was PC or Xavier or someone

Or Uconn

Creighton beat St. John at home by almost 30.
