Around Big East

@patokeefe12: .@SetonHallMBB's Sterling Gibbs named @BIGEASTMBB Player of Week. Averaged 25.5 in 2 wins, including 40-point performance a/g Illinois St.

Creighton lost to Tulsa tonight

Providence losses to BC and the big east has really come back down to earth. Big east 17-12 since they were 37-2 (I did this quick adding so may be slightly off), and it looks like reversion to the mean is complete. 

Seton Hall killing Rutgers. Rutgers is really slow. Getting killed by seton hall's press. We gotta sweep them this year

Butler is playing Northwestern at 4:30 on regular fox 5. Are they going to put Big East basketball on every Saturday?

Rutgers reminds me of the 04-05 STJ squad. 

The Big East might be this year's Atlantic 10.....some big wins today over the Big Ten.....ACC....maybe SEC.

D'Lo is BE Player of the Week. Whitehead wins Rookie award.

As they keep winning ESPN can't continue to ignore the BE. Just read the weekly blog and there was no mention of any BE team...Cuse snapping their OOC home winning streak doesn't mean anything? Dana did mention how the BE is still vulnerable in NYC and that's why the ACC and B10 are trying to move in...B10 seems silly movin g there conference championship a week earlier.

If UCONN gave up football then I think that is a possibilty.  I think the Big12 will add two more teams soon because the got screwed out of  the Playoffs. It will be interesting to see who they go after. For first time in a long while in glad BE doesbt have to worry about that crap and it may actually help the conference out to see what the after affects would be. 

Would take Uconn and Cincinnati back in a second

Not happening with any school that even remotely has a D-I football  investment.

Providence sucks

Not playing well tonight in the first half, but they crushed FSU and won in Notre Dame.  And only one semi-bad loss BC.  I think with Henton, Dunn, Harris, etc, they will be pretty good this year.

Providence sucks

Yes they do

Brown beats Prov at the Dunk. A healthy reminder for our guys that there is no such thing as a patsy in college basketball. 

I said it on twitter preseason that I thought Providence was most overrated team in Big East. I thought Creighton was most underrated. Butler has been beyond shocking.

But everyone is still basking in the Cooley glory.....
