Big East Tournament Thread

Carter got that Trae young hairline

Ecstatic that Creighton lost. So much attitude from such a cute little MVC program. The lights are a lot brighter in NYC than they are in Omaha.

That may be a little harsh. They are a consistently good program with wins on all stages recently.

They went right at the BE defensive player of the year. lol

Yep. "Elite" D of Creighton got 5 turnovers from Providence tonight.

They've never turned teams over.

I sure am glad we're not playing that fine DePaul team tonight.

[Uncle Rico]

Providence won

[MU82]

We'd probably be losing by 20 to DePaul by now.

Teams who play elite D get more than 5 TOs by accident.

[CTWarrior]

Providence won

Weird, I was rooting for Creighton.  I liked our chances against them better than against PC without Tyler.

The year Virginia won the national title, they were 250th in turnover %.  UConn was 143rd last year in turnover %.  Kentucky in 2012 was 299th in turnover %.  Those were better defenses than Creighton but weren't great at turning teams over

So is this how it's going to go? UCONN beats everyone by 20 and everyone else scratches and claws until they hit UCONN where.....well already stated.

I want to see how St. John's does in that game.  Good litmus test for them.  I don't expect them to win but if they can be in it to the end, that's a lot of good progress for them

Never thought they were elite in any way. But they're good and are the worst team in the country at turning teams over. They don't play for them.

Slick Rick should break out the white suit tomorrow.

Heard there was a fight that broke out after the game near where the Marquette Boosters sit. Is that true

Oh.....boy.  Hopefully no one was seriously hurt.

I am probably in the minority here seeing as there were a ton of people wanting Nova over Depaul but I will be cheering for St.Johns tonight. While I do still believe that we can beat Uconn, I would rather not face them.

I'm with you here. Win tonight and face St. Johns in the championship game? Works for me. It would be great if we repeated as BET champs.

I hope all the teams have fun
