2025-26 Big East Thread

[wadesworld]

Bucky added Rapp and Boyd. A big and a point. No way they should have won.

I wish we could pay for a 6'10" player to come get 3 rebounds per game and shoot 34% from the field for us.

You got me. 20/8 against a Big East team. We wouldn't want that. Give me 6/4 for free.

Absolutely no reason we shouldn't be the only undefeated team in the country this year. RGV baby (and not UT-RGV).

Lost like the dogs they are

Actually, people are generally positive. Hoyas came back from 14 down with 5:37 to force overtime, outscored Dayton 16-2 during this run. Missed a three to tie with 0:03 in OT when the went around and out.  No shame there.

Won't help attendance next week, but it was a good showing.

Not sure why that would surprise anyone. Their roster construction sucks.

[Cracked Sidewalks] Dayton Preview

The Flyers pulled off the upset in Dayton last year. Can they do the same in Milwaukee and push for an NCAA bid? Cracked Sidewalks has your Dayton Preview.

Dayton Flyers

6 out of 7???

7 out of 8 now.

By a surprizing coincidence, Dayton has now won 7 out of 8 of their games against Big East opponents since the NBE was formed for the 2014-15 season:

Too many of you spend too much time obsessing about Dayton 'not being good enough for the Big East'. Get a grip.

Dayton beats Georgetown.

I guess this is why we can't let Dayton in the Big East.

Moving on...

You 'Dayton haters' will be pleased to learn that the Flyers are a 10½-point underdog to #9 BYU tonight.
 
The Dayton Flyers have lost three National Championship games in their storied history – the first being against BYU in 1951:

We still hate BYU 74 years later. Best of luck against Oklahoma tonight!

Dayton sucks

[Uncle Rico]

RGV...helll yeah!

St. John's roster construction this year does suck.  Brew laid it out pretty good in his season preview of them.  It's a flawed team that isn't nearly as good as their pre-season ranking.  They'll win enough games to make the tournament but they're not a serious threat to make a deep run in March
