2021-22 Big East Conference Results

Creighton losing to ASU late

DePaul struggling with UIC

[MuggsyB]

DePaul will hold on.  Just a colossal dud game for Creighton.  Mistake, after mistake, after mistake, down the stretch.

[MuggsyB]

Bad loss for Creighton.  And bad coaching.

[Mr. Nielsen]

Freeman-Liberty with 27 points. 9-0 run for DePaul to close the game.

After the timeout that was the play. Dribbling to slow up the court. Not one pass. Flat after the big win over BYU.

That's what they drew up after a time-out with 6+ secs???  Horrible coaching.

I can't answer if it's coaching. As players don't do many times what coaches draw up.

Pass the ball up the floor.  They had 6.2 secs and burned 4 secs dribbling to half-court.  It didn't look like McD had anything drawn up to me.

Every once in a while Creighton will lay an egg when it's not expected .

Thanks for the info. Our power company informed us that our electricity would be off for a while for repair work starting at 10. Just as Creighton was about to inbound, it went off. I laughed but told my wife I was glad it was not a Marquette game.

[MuggsyB]

Impressive first half from Xavier.  I don't care how bad Morehead St. may be, you have to respect teams that drop the hammer.

Solid win for The Hoyas over their cross town rival Howard .

The Big East standings on the left side bar are not up to date?

X is loaded with talent and have been figuring out how to play together. Even though they were winning earlier in the season, they are playing at a different level the past few weeks. Freemantle isn't even fully back to what he can be yet, but Nunje (Iowa transfer) has found his game after the typical transfer acclimation process we've all seen and added another dimension to an already strong team. An apparent role player putting up 31 and 15 in a rivalry game against Cincy is impressive. They are legit two deep across the board and great defensively.

In terms of weaknesses, they are turnover prone and can have off shooting nights/settle for too many threes. They seem to have figured out, however, that they are better off getting the ball inside too rather than just jacking threes.

It would be a great win if MU can win at X.

Truth.  Been struggling with that.  They're not getting updated through the sports-reference API, and I'm trying to figure out how to force an update.   Probably a cache issue.

Big East 91-24 Non Conference

Big East 91-24 Non Conference

Herman, any chance you have that breakdown by quadrants?

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Herman, any chance you have that breakdown by quadrants?

Sure, but keep in mind that NET takes awhile to settle:

Q1:
15-16

Q2:
6-5

Q3:
16-2 (CREI loss to ASU and GTWN loss to SC)

Q4:
51-1 (GTWN loss to DART)

Non-D1:
3-0

Overall, we are the second strongest NET conference behind the B12

It would be a great win.  If Kunkel goes off like he did last year I don't even know what to say.  MU needs to increase the intensity across to board and play far more disciplined basketball.  I saw that deer in the headlights look last Saturday and was thoroughly disappointed.  That can't happen.  We need team confidence, precision, poise, execution, and uncompromising tenacity  to get the W.  Maybe it's me but I do not feel we played hard for numerous stretches vs the Bruins once we got punched in the mouth.

Appreciate it, TAMU

[Billy Hoyle]

Seton Hall has to cancel their game against Iona this weekend (doubheader with SJU/Pitt at MSG) and their next game at home against St. John's is in doubt. COVID.

[MU82]

Here we go.

[LAZER]

Will teams still have to forfeit if they're vaccinated and follow proper protocols?

[rocky_warrior]

Will teams still have to forfeit if they're vaccinated and follow proper protocols?

"If [any] Big East team can't field enough players to play in a game on its originally intended date during the league season, the game will go down as a forfeit and a loss on that team's conference record. A win will be assigned to the opponent."

[tower912]

The real fun comes when both schools can't field a team.

Apparently there are a number of unvaccinated players on SH and the team had issues with this over the summer as well.
