This team responds as well to a gut punch as any I can remember in the recent past.
Butler's ludicrous game winner results in Miss State getting pounded. Lay an egg in Gainesville and controlled Wisconsin. Embarrassing loss to GB and beat LSU. Tough overtime loss to Sincy and handled PC (and a bat). Crushed by Ville and destroy USF.
I'm still not sure where they fit on the good scale but they can respond to adversity. Perhaps our best hopes lie with a crushing defeat in the Big East final. May just pull off a run like Ville did last year.
Except the team that we would be crushing would be our first-round opponent, and I would hope we wouldn't need the help then.....
Need to keep up the mojo for DePaul; if playing well they do have so darn good players; will Gtown looming two days later on the road, I'm a 3-4 on the worried scale

Excellent point, Lanche. Some teams turn one bad game into a multiple game swoon.

DePaul is terrible.

Agreed, well said.

Yes. But they've been quite bad in the past. That didn't stop us from losing to them. ?-(
We'll win as long as we're not cocky.

This would be a good time to point out that DePaul has only beaten Marquette in Milwaukee once in the last 21 years.

And it took DePaul having a conference POY to do it. We will win.
