Around Big East

This is a big game for DePaul, they're very improved.

@CerasolisGhost: FINAL: Seton Hall 89, USF 69. Pirates offense killed it. Delgado 16 pts, 6 rebs; Gibbs 14 pts, 6 asts; Whitehead 10 pts, 5 asts #shbb

Ryan A. from Nova is only averaging 7 points a game. I thought he was much better then that. Does he only kill us?

It's Fox. Of course, it's dumb.

We were not interested in defending the 3 last year, so he did well, because he can knock down a wide open 3. This year, especially last night, guys like Greene, Jordan and Harrison are getting out on shooters. 
It also helps that Jakarr Sampson and his patented I dare you make a wide open jumper defense aren't here to pull that crap anymore.

Refs are catching up to "Arcidiannoying" flops & theatrics.

Nova down by 12. I guess it's a win win either way. A cuse win will help our RPI even though I hate them

GT wins by 3 over Charlotte

Nova down by 12. I guess it's a win win either way. A cuse win will help our RPI even though I hate them

Much prefer a Nova win. We will get 2 chances at them this year, one at home, and we could use a Top 10 win to solidify our resume.

Hilarious!!!

Is anyone else's audio fading in and out of Fox during the Nova SU game? I rewatch we St.John's last night, and it happened during that broadcast as well.

If Syracuse wins they will probably give them a very unwarranted ranking so our Rpi will shoot up 5 to 10 spots. Villanova would still be ranked for our 2 games with them. I hate it but we need a cuse win.
  

Nova wins by 5 in OT. Jim B's wife is staying with her parents tonight.

Easy now, it's not Fox News.

I have really become anti espn.  Watching okla vs wash game which is at half.  Top 25 scoreboard comes up and Studio guys summing up games focusses on butler loss rather than nova win.. The way that nova got to OT happens rarely to ever and espn focusses on butler loss vs Indiana.  Jay Williams forgets to mention that msu lost to Texas southern.

Beating a dead horse but working in sports entertainment, I see this happen all the time where a company  goes out of way to kick a competitor down.  Love the fact that SEC, ACC and big 10 are down this Yr.. Worst thing that happens is duke vs UK in finals.  Espn might create a holiday for employees.

Haha about time, but regardless of his poor shooting he still has his hand in almost all their crucial plays. Last 30 seconds of regulation yesterday was perfect example, 2 assists and a steal. Ive said it a million times, those kids on Nova just seem to make winning plays. 

Georgia up 41-22 on Seton Hall at the half. Do they have a St.John's like comeback in them?

I think it is improved but can we all now relax on the BE being this elite (on the level of the ACC) conference for awhile.

If it weren't for SJU and Villanova with big rallies at home (and quite frankly Nova got outplayed and deserved to lose) this would have been a complete disaster of a weekend for the BE.

Let's be clear the ACC has 3 teams: Duke, Louisville and Virginia (really being underappreciated in my mind that is a Final Four caliber team) that are all better than Villanova.  Period.  Deeper and more talented.  And Villanova is the deepest and best BE team by a country mile!!!

They have another who has as much talent as Nova if not more that has clearly underachieved so far but you can see they will be big time by the end of year, North Carolina.

They have another ND who has one loss (granted that was to a BE team in Providence by a point in Connecticut) and Syracuse is not vintage but they showed they have enough young talent that they will win some games against good teams later in the year.  That was a gift they gave Villanova.

Again the League is improving Georgetown and Xavier even with some early losses will be legit in the League.  But you saw all those tweets from a few weeks ago with the BE W/L record 38-3 nonsense, that stopped pretty quick no???  LOL!!

Did we go after Desi fro seton hall and Lincoln? Wish we had him.
