Lol what?! We were saying that UCONN could run the table based on...what then? Like a 3 possession sample size? I haven't paid one bit of attention. Figured UCONN was up 25 or something.

St.J  -12 on the glass after 20 mins and up 2.

They were up closer to 25 than 2

We aint winning the conference. Creighton, St. Johns and UConn will finish ahead of us. We are free falling to these programs and people need to get realistic.

Marquette is tied for 3 and 4 right now.   And with games @creighton, @uconn, vs St John's, 4th is about right.   As much as Willie takes shiit, it's hard to argue the trajectory of this team.  Had Xavier not lost Fremantle for a few games, Marquette may be 5th.

Correct. MU only gets the easy wins. Purdue, Wiscy, Maryland, Georgia all stunk when we played them. We'd have 0 good wins if we played them now. Hope the committee sees through us, sees the trajectory, and gives us a CBI Invite.

Marquette still has the highest ceiling in the BEast.

Lucky we played Bucky when they played, if they played this Saturday, Bucky would roll by 20...

Extreme luck to beat Depaul - argue this is a top 3 Big East team

Never said they have 0 good wins.   Said they are struggling now and on a bad trajectory.

Though to talk since we stink and we also lost to Uconn

But is there a player that has lost more money by coming back to school than Karaban?

He's close to a full blown liability on that team right now.

[GoldenEagles03]

The Johnnies want that league crown. They turn every game into an ugly war.

UConn scored 21 points in the 1st 5.5 minutes. They've scored 31 in the next 32 minutes.

Stuck on 52 with under 4 to play.

St Johns was frustrating. But they are good at what they do

Losing to Uconn was worse than the Xavier loss. I'm not convinced they are better than Xavier and we lost by more when they were missing their best player.

Both St.J and UCONN will lose before the 2nd weekend in the tournament.

And marquette too

MU has the highest ceiling of the three.

SJU is flawed but have very real strengths. THey can be contenders

Outside of Hurley and Ball drilling 3s I think this Uconn team is as mediocre as it gets. Bad defenders. Offense is against a D with a pulse is a nightmare cause they cant play make or take care of the ball.

agreed if they play well

[PGsHeroes32]

Seriously though

Karaban returned to be a sit in the corner in crunch time(when you cant make 3s) role guy?!?!?!?!?! for a 3rd year?

His shooting is down this year and he's still just the same off the ball guy with a worst cast.

[MuggsyB]

My take is that St.J will not be able to play bully ball in the tournament like they can in the BEast. They're very good defensively and on the glass but their shooting will doom them.  . 

As for UCONN I just don't think they have a guy who can take over despite Solo Ball's 7-9 from distance against us. 

[MuggsyB]

Huge shot there.  Mid-range. 

[PGsHeroes32]

I love Gus Johnson but holy hell the man is losing it.

He said people are comparing Solo Ball to Russell Westbrook. Maybe the worst comp in the history of sports.

Then Luis drills a killer jumper(great play by pitino) on a mid range sideline shot. Gus "And Luis hadnt drilled a 3 all night"

What in the world

[DoctorV]

What a baseline OOB play call by slick Rick.
Beautiful

This has been a mid range clinic

[GoldenEagles03]

That hurts our title chances a bit.

If we lose tomorrow it may be a 2 team race.
