Big East 2024 -25 Results

Sad really. I'm from Chicago. This is going back a long time, but back in the Aguire Cummings, etc days, tickets to the Blue Deamons were hard to get.

Back in that time, I heard a student went into the steam tunnels late one Friday night and popped up in the Mecca. Rumor was he was detained as the security guard was convinced he was trying to sneak into the Mecca to see the game the next day. Thankfully, the student pleaded ignorance and the guard agreed. 

Or so I've been told.

Fun game to watch from a semi-detached POV. Obviously, I wanted The Provi to win, but I really enjoyed the outstanding plays by both teams -- and scratched my head at some of the dumb stuff.

Kalkbrenner passing up a dunk to set up Scheierman for a fade-away 3 (that was missed) stands out to me for some reason; reminded me of Bobby Simmons in the playoffs for the Sixers. Just dunk it! Kalkbrenner made up for it with a spectacular two-hand block of Hopkins. Nembhardt totally taking over the game for about 5 minutes. Really nice plays by Carter. Some incredibly poor clock management by Providence on several possessions. That great trap called by Cooley and executed perfectly by his players.

And the right team winning.

After we win tomorrow, we assume control of the Big East race.

Thank you, Ed Cooley and the Friars.

Now let's take care of business tomorrow night!

Good to see some Big East hate forming amongst the member schools.  The kumbaya post-reformation was nice, but time for some good old-fashioned rivalries

Sad seeing the  montage of great DePaul players. The most recent one was from the 1980's.

Pix or it didn't happen

Thankfully a time when recorded pictures of stupidity was rare.

OT for St John's DePaul. Isn't there something about cruel and unusual punishment?

The two hundred fans there seem to enjoy it.

It didn't happen.  Those tunnels are locked at every entrance.  The tunnels are filled with large pipes which carry 400+ degree steam.  A very hot and dangerous place for those trained to be there.  Sorry, but no members of the public are randomly accessing the tunnels as an alternate route home from the bars.

It's pretty high comedy.

The Hall with a win that helps their win loss optics .

Looking over Villanova's final 5 games... would be nice for them to find their form and run the table... not likely, but they will have a role to play in who finishes at the top of the standings.

Hell it would be helpful if they win 2 or 3 of those games. Especially if SHU isnt one of them.

They'd be in if they did- has to be motivating

Must win game for The Hall against U Conn

[Badgerhater]

Rooting for the underdogs today, but expect DePaul to get absolutely pummeled today.

I wouldn't want to be DePaul today.  Think X is going to take a lot of frustration out on them

[GoldenEagles03]

Go DePaul, Villanova, and St. John's.

I'd love to guarantee at least a share of the Conference Title next weekend against DePaul.  Why not!?!

[Herman Cain]

Solid win for The Huskies over The Hall

[wisblue]

I'd love to see Villanova find a rhythm as their next 3 games are against PC, Xavier, and Creighton. They have played the top teams tough, but just keep falling short. They could be a big ally for MU these last two weeks.

They don't want to help us become The Next Villanova!

X taking out some frustration on DP

[Juan Anderson's Mixtape]

Nova down 5 at the half.  Would be nice if they pull one out.
