Big East Conference BET Results

Storm the court against an unranked team.

Oh DePaul...

[Pakuni]

Act like you've been there before DeP...

Never mind.

Storm the court against an unranked team.

Oh DePaul...

And when they were undefeated. That's now how this is supposed to work...

I'm ready for DePaul to suck again.

[Herman Cain]

200th career win for Leitao

Next up Buffalo

[Heisenberg]

Yes, Depaul actually has fans! And they were so excited they beat Texas Tech in OT, they stormed the court. (admittedly it was exciting as Deapul hit a three to tie with seconds left and surged late in OT to take the lead.)

Depaul is now 9-0, first 9 game winning streak since 1993-94.

The blue demons are at Buffalo Sunday.  If they win this, they should be ranked next week.

------------

Good for Depaul, they have suffered enough.  And they are MU's natural conference rival.  I would argue a better Depaul team is actually good for us.

[Mr. Nielsen]

Funny when this match up was announced. Texas Tech said, mismatch.

[MU82]

I mostly watched our guys, but I did keep flipping to this game, and it was very entertaining.

I'd love for Marquette-DePaul to be a rivalry again. They will give us 2 tough games this season.

My immediate reaction when they semi-sorta, slo-mo stormed the court was, "Really, you beat an unranked team and you're storming?" But why the hell not? It's been so long since they've been relevant. Good for them.

It's coming...it starts Dec 30th aka Big east play where teams are familiar with them. Could easily see them close to .500 overall by season's end.

[Pakuni]

Worth noting that Tech was playing without its leading scorer tonight.

+1

Depaul home games are usually empty and essentially away games for them. No one cared for DECADES.  So given the agony of their fans, yes the excitement and court rushing are warranted.

Five years to judge, hey? +3

Excellent night for The Big East

We want everyone to do well in Non Conference

Right now DePaul is our friend

Come December 30 it's another matter

[MUEng92]

I was a Sixer fan during the Dr J through Barkley years.  Then I stopped paying attention to them.  I don't think I'm allowed to suddenly call myself a Sixer fan were they to start the season 9-0.

So I ask, how many DePaul "fans" have really suffered vs just quit being fans?

It looked the majority of the fans there tonight were kids from the school which is understandable if not applaudable.

It will take a while before the casual fan starts backing them again. They have to keep winning and then get local media behind them.

All I care about is that they go 13-0 non con

I still have a DePaul basketball shirt hanging in my closet. Does that count?

Worth noting that Tech was playing without its leading scorer tonight.

Seems like most everyone won't acknowledge this. Also, 20+ turnovers on the road isn't exactly helpful.

[Herman Cain]

Ewing and Associates get another good opportunity this weekend when they go on the road to face an undefeated SMU squad.

Would be helpful to the leagues cause if they could rack up a road win.

[Herman Cain]

X Coach was not satisfied with the win.

And DePaul was without Devon Gage.

Tech isn't as good as last year and it may be hard to believe, but DePaul is pretty good.  On top of that, they always give us a battle.

We've beat them by double digits 5 times in the past 3 years. Only one of those was ever really in doubt.

I do agree they are legitimately pretty good this year.

Yeah but lost the one time something was actually on the line (ncaa berth)

And DePaul was without Devon Gage.

Tech isn't as good as last year and it may be hard to believe, but DePaul is pretty good.  On top of that, they always give us a battle.

Devon Gage is DePaul's seventh man, averaging 17.8 mpg and 6.5 ppg. He's a point guard who has more turnovers this season than assists.
Jahmi'us Ramsey is scoring 17.3 ppg, while adding 6 rebounds per game and 1.5 steals per game.

Gage is an OK player and all, but these absences are not comparable. Tech is 0-3 since Ramsey went down. DePaul hasn't missed a beat without Gage.
It's not unreasonable to believe Ramsey's 17 and 6 might have made a difference in a game that went to overtime.
