Big East 2024 -25 Results

[GB Warrior]

If we can't beat UConn at home like Seton Hall did, it's proof we're not good.  Good teams don't lose to bad teams.  Ever.

That's not true, Bucky lost to Marquette

[Scoop Snoop]

Shouldn't bother showing up to Nova after they beat SJU. Shouldn't bother showing up against SHU since they beat UCONN. Shouldn't show up to play Providence because they're beating Nova, who beat SJU. And obviously shouldn't bother showing up against SJU or UCONN because they beat us.and Georgetown should've beat us, so might as well skip that game too.

Fun season everyone!

Works for me!

Above and beyond UConn choking, so many crazy things had to happen for Seton Hall to win that game.

The two that stood out to me were: SH missing a dunk but chasing down the long rebound that led to the tying 3; and a 25% FT shooter with about the ugliest pair of makes possible (including banking one in).

And I haven't even mentioned how the team run by "the best coach in the f%cking sport" was repeatedly unable to inbound the ball against the worst team in the f%cking Big East.

Almost an impossible outcome. Ya gotta love sports!

Yep, an improbable win for the Pirates. But they did it. UConn was unable to inbound with the pressure.

Can't remember which Eeyore it was who said UConn woulda gonna 20-0 in the Big East had McNeeley played in every game.

Willie w-eeyore-ior?

So I've been off scoop for some days and hope to read some of y'alls takes on some crazy results.

I really like the UCONN humbling we've seen this year. Certainly their success is good for the BE but Hurley can be unbearable! They will be a dangerous matchup for a higher seed.

My very unlikely parlay that ends with MU tied for the BE crown is still alive.

STJ lost the one-off game to NOVA and if they can beat CR today at home and lose to UC, ALL that's left is MU runs the table....that's all😉

Side note: I figure Creighton wins out after STJ today so they have to lose.

This is Hurley's worst defensive team in his time in Storrs.  It's somewhat perplexing how bad/mediocre their defense is

[Scoop Snoop]

I'm more interested in Marquette getting up to a #4 seed than I am with finding a way of getting a share of the BE regular season title, but both require a nice finish in the BE. The 5/12 NCAA matchups are kind of scary for the 5s.

BUT...the thread is BE Results so let's hope we find a way to finish strong and that SJU stumbles a bit. Just to watch Pitino get pissed off if for no other reason.

I'm torn today.

Part of me thinks I'd rather have Creighton win to keep our BE hopes alive, but the other part of me would rather see St. John's win a BE Title than Creighton. Creighton has become one of my least favorite BE schools so I don't want to see them win a title.

Actually I think STJ win gives MU a better chance. I think CR wins out after today without much of a sweat. So MU winning BE needs CR to lose and UC getting STJ. It's all unlikely. I also like STJ as a nicer story than CR.

MU just needs to win I know and a good finish to the season, will be what we really want.

You may be right...an added element too though, is that MU may need St Johns to lose to pass them in the protected seed ranks.

Still torn!

This is the bigger deal imo.  We want Michigan and St.J to lose today. 

[Johnny B]

Wow I turned the uconn game off when they were up 7 with 3? To go or so. Just saw the result now damn

[GoldenEagles03]

So much for Smith being out for the year.

A coach trying to use an injury to throw off his opponent's preparation going into a game that could just about lock up at least a share for a BE title? Never seen that before.

I think he's actually injured though. He has looked rough lately.

We'll see if he has any substantial impact.

It was an entertaining game to watch (moreso than MU  ). Watching UConn's struggles inbounding the ball was great fun considering all the grief MU gets. Especially with the basketball savant Karaban with the ball. Those 2 FTs were epic, especially the missiled second off the backboard. SH had a lot of movement in their offense yesterday, more than MU recently. I always enjoy watching Addae-Wusu play. Perhaps he was the missing piece for the Pirates? This result should make our guys take Tuesday's game seriously.

[Uncle Rico]

Game over.  St. John's just terrible right now

[CountryRoads]

I think we want St John's here if we want the best shot at a BE title.

but Creighton for an even better shot at a Top 4 protected seed. Pick your poison really.

Creighton is a very good program with an excellent coach who gets the most possible out of his recruits. Nebraska is not a hotbed for basketball and Omaha is not an attractive destination for many recruits.

[GoldenEagles03]

If Kalkbrenner just broke his foot, Creighton is done for.

He seemed worried. Awkward fall.

[willie warrior]

Uh oh. Kalkenbanger just went down. Could be curtains for the Bluejays.
