PC up one with 12 minutes left

Uh-oh, Providence in a battle at home with Fairfield.

 

[shizzle787]

Fairfield is either pretty good or Providence is bad. Ohio State won by 1 at the buzzer against Akron (who might be a 25-win team in the MAC, but still).

 

[shizzle787]

As much as we would all like to see Providence lose, it is bad for the Big East, and therefore us.

 

[shizzle787]

Creighton down by 13 to Arkansas Pine Bluff.

 

[aburks41]

Indiana and Ohio State both barely survived two MAC teams lmao. Big 10 is gonna flop again in March

 

[8893]

Oh my that FU dunk.

 

[TRest]

Wichita state losing at halftime to Jacksonville state.

 

[Dooooooomed]

Houston struggling with Hofstra.

Nah. Is it ever bad when Providence loses?

Pitt looks terrible. Leaving the Big East put a stake in that basketball program. Dixon knew it, which is why he left just a year or two later.

 

[Dooooooomed]

Pitt on their way to a loss vs Citadel.
Mercer up 8 vs #16 Arkansas at the half.
Hofstra up 6 vs #15 Houston at the half.
Jacksonville State up 4 vs Wichita at the half.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Great crowd at New Rochelle.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

ACC has a few teams struggling to separate in the second half. Bucknell and NC State tied, Miami (OH) up on GTech. Prebyterian within shouting distance of Clemson

 

[Jay-Bone]

Kansas handling MSU without Jalen Wilson. Gonna be a contender.

 

[UconnU]

What’s up with Creighton? Getting killed by Arkansas Pine-Bluff.

 

[shizzle787]

A-10 7-0 tonight so far. All other seven teams are also winning.

 

[Dooooooomed]

Kansas handling MSU without Jalen Wilson. Gonna be a contender.

Contender for a 1 seed, only to advance no further than the Sweet 16...

Pitt IS terrible. I feel like checking Vegas odds on them going winless.

Dixon knew his style didn't mesh with ACC ball, but the Kevin Stallings hire was horrible. Old boys network stuff. They didn't have to lose their NYC pipeline, but Stallings' staff choices ensured that. And now it seems Capel has had a hard time with keeping any semblance of unity with the teams he had - at least one of which did have tourney-level talent.
