You guys want to talk more UCLA ?

 

[superjohn]

Really good battle in the first half between Seton Hall and Butler. Both teams are stroking it from three point land, high scoring.

 

[Vowelguy]

Orange getting housed by UNC 34-16, and not even 1/2 time

 

[Scot-e]

We routing for SH?

 

[SoFla Steve]

We routing for SH?

I don't know. I want to win a BE title so I guess I want the teams tied for first -- Seton Hall and SJU -- to lose today. Not sure how it affects the metrics.

beat them head to head then no problems. Want BE as strong as possible. SH/SJ look like they could make it in. Does Butler have a chance so far?

 

[auror]

Seton Hall and Butler both hit 50% from 3 in the 1H.

CBS has projected BE with 8 teams in NCAA field... 8 of 11 teams would be terrific. Long way to go but it seems like BE will have 8 teams in the mix for a bid at least.

 

[AntG168]

Seton Hall might be for real

 

[Ctedgeman]

What happened with Nembhard? Presumably, he would have been the primary point guard this year at Creighton. Was it just purely a NIL thing?

 

[HooperScooper]

Orange getting housed by UNC 34-16, and not even 1/2 time

Remember when Syracuse was good? Yeah, neither do I.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

Remember when Syracuse was good? Yeah, neither do I.

I'm enjoying this game.

Seton Hall and Butler both hit 50% from 3 in the 1H.

Second half is a typical Big East Rock fight.

It really won't affect them because the BE is a beautiful home-away road robin.

 

[Dove]

Syracuse getting treated badly by a team we stomped.

 

[mike012]

Syracuse will always have BC to pick on. Other than that they might as well just bend over and assume the position.

 

[tzznandrew]

Remember when Syracuse was good? Yeah, neither do I.

Their last good team was 2014, in which they were ranked #1 a 3 seed in the NCAAs. A different team won that championship, though...

They've had some tournament runs since (including a Final Four in 2016 and two S16), but those teams weren't particularly good and all were bubble teams.

This is 10 years since their last truly good team. Woof.

 

[Vowelguy]

Syracuse will always have BC to pick on. Other than that they might as well just bend over and assume the position.

They luck out and get BC Lou Pitt twice this year.

92-57 Heels and it’s not over

 

[tzznandrew]

Syracuse will always have BC to pick on. Other than that they might as well just bend over and assume the position.

The Syracuse wiki page is embarrassing. Aside from treating the Helms Titles as equivalent to real NCAA titles, they have a section on rivalries, in which they give their records against: Georgetown, UConn, Villanova, St. John's, and um, Duke? "
The Orange lead all-time series with each of their rivals except Duke." Just cringe.

 

[Tuna]

Cuse down 35 and have a max bet on UNC -13. Doesn’t get much better than this.

 

[Waquoit]

Syracuse will always have BC to pick on. Other than that they might as well just bend over and assume the position.

Those dopes might still be relevant if they didn't blackball us.

they are both playing like tourney teams in this game for sure.

 

[AntG168]

Seton Hall loss aging like fine wine

 

[superjohn]

Seton Hall wins, that was a great game and an impressive performance for them on the road against a good Butler team. They made a bunch of tough shots down the stretch.
