Minny gave Providence a beating

Minny gave Providence a beating

Must've change significantly the last handful of minutes. PC was up 51-46 when we got busy at work. Clearly took a turn from there.

Yeah it was kinda a fluke.

Minny was very sloppy and missed many open layups/dunks.

Second half they scored at will.

Providence doesn't have enough talented size to answer Murphy and even Lynch(when he wasn't in usual foul trouble).

Unless I'm missing someone here, 16-0 against hairy's and 0-3 against other high-major opponents so far.

Yeah, the only win that even caught my attention was Butler beating Princeton.  Is Princeton still any good?

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Yeah, the only win that even caught my attention was Butler beating Princeton.  Is Princeton still any good?

I'd put them between top 90 and top 120 in the country.  Solid win but would be concerning if Butler lost

Remove the bunnies and the Big East is 0-3

[BM1090]

Remove the bunnies and the Big East is 0-3

Sure. But the 0-3 came from 3 unranked Big East teams playing ranked opponents. SHU will smoke Indiana tonight, Creighton and Butler have a good shot against Northwestern and Maryland.

We'll know more in a few weeks.

[brewnewsman]

For reference going forward – I found this from January 3 – entering last conference season.

Big East had an OOC record of 105-38, .734 win pct.

14 “top 50 wins”  (using KenPom rankings)
11 sub-100 losses

Top-50 wins (14): at Purdue (Villanova); vs. Wake Forest (Villanova and Xavier); vs. Notre Dame (Villanova); vs. Clemson (Xavier); vs. Northwestern (Butler); vs. Arizona (Butler); vs. Cincinnati (Butler); vs. Indiana (Butler); vs. Wisconsin (Creighton); vs. Cal (Seton Hall); vs. South Carolina (Seton Hall); vs. Oregon (Georgetown); vs. Rhode Island (Providence)

Sub-100 losses (11): vs. Old Dominion (St. John's); vs. Delaware State (St. John's); vs. LIU Brooklyn (St. John's); at Indiana State (Butler); vs. Stanford(Seton Hall); vs. Arkansas State (Georgetown); at Boston College (Providence); vs. Rutgers (DePaul); vs. UIC (DePaul); vs. Wyoming (DePaul); vs. Missouri State (DePaul)

Certainly no bad losses yet.  Need X and Depaul to take care of business to split the Gavitt games.

We've already guaranteed a split at worst. Xavier, St. John's, Creighton, and Seton Hall all won. If DePaul wins, we win the challenge 5-3.

[MUBigDance]

I would say not too bad so far.
BE is 22-4 with BT, PV, DP, MU losing to MD, MN, ND, and Purdue  all by double digits.

Those loses are all to decent teams and of course wish we could have won a couple more...will see after holiday tourney type games where we stand.

Don't have the energy to calculate weighted kenpom w/l %

Wisconsin looked pretty good in that game.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Wisconsin looked pretty good in that game.

If you say so. They shot 41% from the floor and 29% from deep and let X shoot 51% from the floor and 35% from deep. But they did hang in there until falling apart in the last three minutes. I thought Happ looked really good as always. But he really seems like he's that whole team.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

We've already guaranteed a split at worst. Xavier, St. John's, Creighton, and Seton Hall all won. If DePaul wins, we win the challenge 5-3.

That post was made yesterday am.  But yes...good results last night.

[brewcity77]

That post was made yesterday am.  But yes...good results last night.

Just pointing out that X and DePaul taking care of business would earn us 5-3 win, not a split.

[avid1010]

this has probably been answered before...but how do they decide which teams participate and what match-ups occur?

[Herman Cain]

The Big East is currently the top conference in RPI. It is early in the season so this ranking will bounce around a bit.

Color me blue, but I like our chances at Wisconsin. ESPN2 right now, if we can play to our strengths, Baylor taking care of business.

Cue hate for Brad Davison

Creighton drops 100 on UCLA and wins by 11.

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

also the conference has no bad losses, which is nice.  Depaul @ Illinois is probably the worst losses.

Only 3 losses to teams outside of power conferences - 1 of which was Gonzaga, and the other 2 were Rhode Island, both of which are obviously very good teams.

Strong start for the conference.
