Big one tonight with Villanova at Seton Hall

This game should be a nice palate cleanser, honestly.

Paul Scruggs is out tonight for Xavier vs PC

Well. In our quest to avoid Wednesday in the BET this is good, I suppose. Should have never gotten to this point though.

Classic Big East Battle at the Dunc tonight. Cooley & Company up 64-62 over X with 7:26 left .

I really enjoy watching our conference games. This year has been especially entertaining.

Watching SHU-Nova and am stunned by the energy and motion of both offenses compared to the way we play.

Nice of Powell to find his game just for MU, back to mediocrity tonight with another sparkling outside performance. 1-6 from 3 in the 1H

[Mr. Nielsen]

Sean McDermott had 16 points and 14 rebounds to lead five Butler players in double figures as the Bulldogs defeated St. John's 77-55

Hoping Nova can close out Seton Hall. The Hall has a record crowd tonight and the student section is packed. Our Wednesday night crowds were pathetic in comparison.

Gonna defend our fans here which I haven't done all year. Our weeknight crowds are generally good. SHU rarely even opens the upper deck of their arena.

SHU average attendance is actually pretty weak given the size of their arena and the metro they are in.

Also, Powell now 5-17 for 14 in his final home game to lock up the conference title. Give the award to Alexander for god's sake

8.5 seconds left, up 3. Will Wright foul?

[JWags85]

 Nova is a fantastic team but that was just like the MU game. Nova BRICKING FTs to give SHU a chance. I can't believe they let McKnight get the ball nearly at center court.

Short of going off for 35 in a road win at Creighton, no way Powell should get POY. He was horrible from the field including multiple contested bricks down the stretch. Mamu was the MAN and is the reason they had a chance.

With a win v Georgetown, Villanova can finish first or second in Big East for 7th straight season. They have one of the younger teams in America. Not bad.

Seton Hall attendance has grown the past few years.

Bad for Marquette next year.  0-2 vs. Wildcats next year.  Will be lucky to get a single digit loss.

Most year's only 1 time. This year it happened 6 times. Excellent year in attendance for the Hall.

By the way, I am unsure how many people here understand student section numbers in Big East. For example:

Not sure how much it has increased but just two seasons ago, there were 505 student season tix at Seton Hall. Slightly more than 100 of them attended every game.

Xavier expanded from 800 student season tix to 1,000 a couple of years ago.

...and so on...

MU gets the 6 if either of these happen:

-MU wins at St Johns
-Xavier loses at home vs Butler

If both of the above results are reversed, then we have a rematch with DePaul on Wednesday night as the 7 seed.

An MU win and Xavier win makes MU the 5.

I think those are all of the possibilities.

[Herman Cain]

Nova Hall game was a good one. 

Mamu is really rounding into nice form for The Hall. They are going to need Powell to regain his form soon though.

Was good to see Creighton and Butler get back to their winning ways tonight. Want our conference to get as many high seeds as possible in tournament.

Cooley & Company are looking like they are going to make the tournament. Doing it the old fashioned way by winning at the right time.

MU may end up getting lucky and getting a matchup with Nova in the BET.  Probably our best matchup against the top teams.

With a loss to Villanova, Georgetown will finish no better than 8th in the Big East for four of the last five seasons. They lose three starters from 2019-20 and their top recruit decommitted at the end of 2019. Not good.

But Pat Ewing did a hell of a coaching job given the circumstances.  If he can recruit the right guys, he'll be fine.

Nice of Powell to find his game just for MU, back to mediocrity tonight with another sparkling outside performance. 1-6 from 3 in the 1H

Player Of The Year Powell went 1-7 in the last 10 minutes of a title clinching game. Totally invisible at the biggest moment of the season for Hall.

It's criminal a guy who is essentially a less potent Jeremy Hazell is going to get award recognition over a historically great player in Howard. Alas, the media narrative seems too much to overcome.
