Title: Hall spanked by Butler, St J's blows opportunity to build BiGE RPI over ACC
Post by: Logi4three on January 25, 2015, 04:00:51 PM: Seton Hall about to lose by 20+ to Butler. Sucks for us, given we are next game on Wednesday, but they have lost 4 out of their last 5 now.

Meanwhile, St. J's blew 10 pt. lead over Duke that would have helped build our Big East resume over ACC. They played a hell of a game, but Duke stepped it up in crunch time (particularly after Plumlee and Duke's big lineup was put in at the end).

In the end, both games still show how tough a conference the Big East is this year.

Would have been nice for a St. Johns win. They were very competitive though in what was a tournament like atmosphere.

I enjoy the Big East very much. Very happy we are part of it.
