Big East Non Conference Results

[Herman Cain]

Big East is 8-2 in non conference play. Lets home this high level of performance continues.

The Big East did well last year in non conference play and that helped get six teams into the tournament.

This is something we need to keep an eye on.

The only bigger surprise than Georgetown getting defeated by Radford was the fact that DePaul had a game on campus, had a sold-out game in front of actual fans, and that DePaul won.

If DePaul can get more competitive in OOC, it does wonders for the Big East.

As of right now, only two schools have yet to be ranked while in the "new' Big East: Marquette ( ) and DePaul.

We were ranked #17 coming into the Ohio State game in 2013, no?

Butler put up 144? Lol

So far the only mention-able win is Providence over Harvard.  How things shake out over the Thanksgiving week tournaments will go a long way in determining the conference's perception for the rest of the season.

Yep.

Wonder is Hoyas still thinks GT is gonna get a 1 seed? Haha.

Big East 9-2 after Seton Hall win over Wagner Today.

Would be nice to see St. Johns get another win tomorrow versus UMBC, important to the league that they are competitive.  Was good to see Chris Mullin win his first game against Wagner.

Maybe we should play Wagner.

Big East now 11-2 in non conference play. Nice that we are part of the winners.

St. Johns looked good in their win tonight over UMBC.

[WarriorInNYC]

Yep.

Wonder is Hoyas still thinks GT is gonna get a 1 seed? Haha.

Not sure where Hoyas thought that.  Looks to me like he thought they would get a 3 seed.

Big East 14-4 in non conference. Villanova racked up win versus Big Ten opponent. GTown played well against Maryland in their loss.

We need to beat Iowa.

And Providence hosts Illinois tonight.

[LloydsLegs]

In the FS1 undercard, Providence in a tight one with Illinois.  Down 57-54 with 5:30 left

[LloydsLegs]

Providence wins by 1 despite missing 3 of 4 free throws in last 43 seconds.  Illinois missed a put back dunk with 3 seconds left to lose the game.  Go Big East.

These Gavitt games are a nice way to showcase our league. We have been very competitive so far.

As sloppy as the finish was with both teams not able to close the game out, that was a very entertaining last several minutes.

[StillWarriors]

Butler scoring like crazy. Up 85-49 over Missouri State in Puerto Rico.

[brewcity77]

Creighton getting waxed by Crean and Indiana, St John's being similar treatment from Rutgers, and (non-Gavitt) Seton Hall down double digits to Long Beach State. Not a good night for the Big East so far.

IU isn't very deep, but they are going to be very good if they can stay healthy.  Senior point guard, athletic wings, strong post presence. 

[LloydsLegs]

impressive comeback by SJU.  Rutgers freethrows; oh my.

[ChicosBailBonds]

Chris Mullin has really aged

[Herman Cain]

St. Johns showing that they have a lot of heart. Have regained the lead with 40 seconds left , they have absolutely no talent but Mullin has them working hard. 

[MarquetteDano]

Big East had a nice showing tonight...

"X" offsets our loss at home to knock of ranked Michigan in Ann Arbor.  I believe that made the Gavitt record an even 4-4 versus the Big Ten

Nova and The Hall take care of business

Butler knocks off Temple in the Puerto Rico Tipoff

G'Town knocks off the Badgers to avenge last year's last minute loss

DePaul loses... of course, but all in all a good night.

[Herman Cain]

The Big East is 22-8 non conference. Everyone holding up their end up the bargain except MU.  Georgetown had a quality loss against Maryland.

We want to see as many wins as possible non conference, this conference is a Beast and every game is a battle.

If all of our losses are against top-100 teams, we're holding up our end. I'm confident we at least go 8-5 non-conference, in part because our schedule is so weak. And while we're clearly not a great team yet, I don't think Arizona State (likely second opponent in NYC) or Wisconsin are great either. Go 9-4 or better and we've definitely done our part, even if it's maybe not what we were hoping for.

I agree with this analysis.
