Big East Non Conference Results

[keefe]

Announcers kept saying it felt like an NCAA game

[LAZER]

Butler -1.5 heading into the game, Arizona struggled the night before with Santa Clara. I don't know much about Arizona, but that ranking might be inflated right now.

Hopefully Dano didn't make it to Vegas!

Hopefully Dano didn't make it to Vegas!

Thank god I don't bet unless I am in Vegas.  I would have lost money on that one.

Well done Butler.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Arizona has superior size, talent, but ZERO basketball IQ. They tried to out-athlete Butler every time down the court. Butler got intimidated for a little bit, settled down, and just played smarter. Very well coached team.

Big East now 40-13.

Not exactly the best looking win at the moment.

When that committee looks at it in March, I'm willing to bet it will be. That being said Vegas knew something as Butler was a 1.5 point favorite.

[Jay Bee]

Where the stream at?

[Eldon]

A lot of Scoopers were against Butler joining the BEast. Frankly, they have proven to be a great get for the conference.

They have transitioned from Stevens very nicely, with a medical casualty thrown into the process.

Must be nice...

Kinda tough to transition from Buzz nicely when he left us a dumpster fire to begin with.

Starting to get those misty stop and go pisses now, ey?

[GGGG]

Kinda tough to transition from Buzz nicely when he left us a dumpster fire to begin with.

Staying within the philosophy of the program helps too.

Were that Georgetown could help those numbers. Instead, the Hoyas and Redmen account for eight of the 13 losses.

Marquette is not exactly killing it either.  Only two loses but other than Vanderbilt no quality wins.

[MarquetteDano]

BTW,  RPI as of right now (not conference, country):

1. Xavier
2. Creighton
3. Nova
