I remember having tickets for the BET night QF &Semis last year. I wanted to see Seton Hall and Myles Powell so badly for one last time. And everything evaporated in the span of 48 hrs.

The league was so loaded last year and would've been a memorable BET. I'm glad to have something to watch this year, even if we can't attend.

Lets go CONNECTICUT!

I forgot how much I enjoyed watching the 1st round games while knowing Uconn has a first round bye - always really enjoyed going to the Wednesday games at MSG even when Uconn didn't play till Thursday.

 

[Big East Fa]

Sad with pretty much no fans, the 1st Round has still had buzz in the arena at MSG. Compared to that truck stop league in the ACC, as fans are dressed as open seats.

Gtown the underdog as the higher seed, interesting. dont care who wins that one tho

for the sake of the BE we want Xavier to win to stay on the right side of the bubble. same with Hall over SJU tomorrow

depaul over PC for the easier matchup or do we want to beat PC to further boost our resume?

On the other hand what about those years where UConn played an early 1st or 2nd rounder and lost before you could even check your bags into the hotel - happened in those early years so often

 

[McLovin]

Marquette missing TONS of open shots right now and also can't get a rebound. Bad start for them.

 

[Ricker]

6 points in 12 minutes!!

 

[KingAG]

Marquette is terrible

 

[KingAG]

Carton turns the ball over more than any college guard i've seen in a long time

 

[Marat]

I still appreciate Marquette for getting those out of conference wins: Wisconsin and North Carolina.

[elmcityboy]

Marquette is terrible

for real. i actually really like their front court (obv garcia is a star, but i like theo john's game too) but their guards and wings can't score and carton is plain bad.

 

[superjohn]

14 points at half for Marquette, starting to wonder about Wojo.

I've been thinking the same thing. Could he be done after this year?

 

[superjohn]

I don't know. He recruits well and this team has talent but they have no identity.

I can't get FS1 streaming in my office. For some reason all I have are these stupid backboard cams.

Remember, Georgetown only lost twice in the last six games...both times to UConn. They are not as horrible as we make them out to be.

We destroyed them, maybe a bad day?

They didn't beat the best teams, but we thrashed them. Think we are pretty good.

Same. @Big Cranky said he got it to work, but I had no luck.

 

[crazyUCfan23]

Marquette has been very hesitant to shoot all game. At times, they've moved the ball well, but nobody wants to shoot.

 

[McLovin]

We destroyed both these teams

 

[McLovin]

10 minutes left and Marquette still hasn’t cracked 30 points.

 

[87Xfer]

Seems like Ewing's done a pretty solid job given how bad they were expected to be.
