Lost in the Euphoria

[businesslawyer]

Creighton lost to DePaul last night moving Providence to within 1.5 games of Creighton, 1 in the loss column. If Providence can win at Creighton this weekend, then even if St Johns can move on from last night and beat ‘Nova on Saturday, a 1 seed in the Big East tournament is very much in play.

What euphoria?

Think I prefer the 2 seed, as I’d like to avoid Providence as they played us tough both games. Nova is tiny, I’d rather play them. Go Creighton.

tbh, does it really matter? UConn and St John’s are both good enough that if they lose before the finals, it’s because they looked too far ahead and lost the game mentally

I don’t care who we get in the first game and I dont care if we get Villanova or Seton Hall in the second game. If we lose either of those games, we clearly weren’t ready to win the BET regardless

There are pluses and minuses to the scenarios - this team or that team ...

The bottom line is UConn can't control those, but UConn just needs to play with intensity each game and it doesn't matter who the opponent will be.

Don’t get lost in the Euphoria that is what got Ash killed.

I agree I don't want to play them, but we can't assume where Providence will land. Even if they beat Creighton, they can easily lose to Marquette or Georgetown.

Honestly don’t care who we play at this point. I’d rather get the one seed and cook

It matters to me solely because a 1 seed in the Big East Tournament means we won the Big East regular season. I know when two teams tie record wise they're technically co-champions, but the 1 seed just makes it feel more legit to me.

This is just ridiculous fearful talk. Seriously?

 

[JustbrewitMan]

If Villanova is as good as we think they may be, they just need to nut up and beat St. John's. Then, we're in the driver's seat again.

If DePaul wins out they’d be the 5 in this scenario but requires a win against nova.

The only thing that really matters is that we are either the Noon game on Thursday or 10PM.

In MSG the only concern is SJU. We should see them in the final either way.

Sorry, I just saw that the 2 seed is in the game at 7 not 10 on Thursday.
