2021-22 Big East Conference Results

[Herman Cain]

Excellent win for The Hall

Excellent win for The Hall

Using Sultan's numbers,  Big East now 5-3 in Battle.  So at worst we are breakeven.  Big East has held up really well against both the Big Ten and Big Twelve.

[CountryRoads]

Nice win for Seton Hall. We'll see where Texas drops to in the NET rankings. I'm really scratching my head at how they were 16. They've only beaten cupcakes. Zero wins against high majors.

[Mr. Nielsen]

Seton Hall has played down to poor teams and step up in big games.

[TSmith34, Inc.]

These zebras should never be able to ref another game.  This cannot happen with under 4 mins left in a 2 point game.  Ever.

Get a grip Muggsy.

St. John's looks like a stronger, faster, more mature MU.   I wonder if they have fans advocating for them to slow down.   I wonder if Anderson cares.

Tower, you know damn well there is a difference between playing fast and playing out of control and too fast.

SJU has turned the ball over at a higher rate than MU against a significantly weaker schedule.

He meant as it compares to the other major conferences.

I'm sure there are other places, but it is here.

BE is 2nd behind the B12.

[Odartey Where Art Thou]

In last 3 days the Big East has played 10 games and beaten the spread in 8 of those. Limited data but feeling has been BEast is undervalued.

[Skatastrophy]

DePaul vs L'ville tonight. Big test for 6-1 DePaul (+7.5).

[JWags85]

Just as everyone expected, DePaul about to go into Freedom Hall and knock off the Cards

Wow.  Smart might not be the best 1st year BE coach.  I mean, DePaul beat Rutgers, which beat Purdue, so probably DePaul #1 next week.

[Herman Cain]

Wow . Depaul is now 8-1

[Mr. Nielsen]

DePaul was crushing many teams. Beat Rutgers. Nice comeback versus Loyola, but lost. Was interesting to see if I was drinking the blue kool-aid on DePaul being better than most thought. Huge step in that direction.

This is going to one tough conference season.

[MU82]

In the last pre-pandemic season, DePaul was 12-1 with nice wins over Texas Tech, Minnesota, Iowa and Northwestern. They promptly went 1-12 in their next 13 en route to another disaster of a season.

Then last year, they went 5-14.

I'm not saying DePaul will suck again. But I'll believe they'll have a good season when they actually have a good season.

Maybe they will. Maybe this will be the year. We'll see!

I hear ya, but new coach brings about a new era.

[MU82]

I hear ya, but new coach brings about a new era.

We'll see! DePaul has had a lot of new coaches the last 20-25 years ... one of whom was the old coach.

It's not impossible that they turn things around. But I think it's fair to judge them with an "I'll believe it when I see it," don't you?

[DoctorV]

Absolutely, as long as I can see it within 5 years

[MuggsyB]

Is Chris Mack  a better fit at Xavier or was L'Ville not supposed to do much this year? 

[1SE]

Wow.  Smart might not be the best 1st year BE coach.  I mean, DePaul beat Rutgers, which beat Purdue, so probably DePaul #1 next week.

I know we make fun if transitivity all the time, but the fact that 4 or MUs wins are still ranked higher in Kenpom really irks me
