[K1 Lover]

Seton Hall was down 18 to UConn but made it a 1-point game with less than 30 seconds left. UConn survives 69-64.

Hopefully the Big East Gets 5 Teams in the Big Dance Again this year

UConn and St. John's are locks. Nova and Seton Hall are looking like near locks. Creighton? We'll see.

Fortunately (or unfortunately), the gap between the top and bottom is so wide that there should be few upsets of the top teams as the season goes forward.

I mean, our very-much-bottom-feeder team just missed a 3 at the buzzer to force Nova into OT even though we were playing without our injured starting center and our injured backup PG. We also had a late 5-point lead over Seton Hall. So aside from UConn, and probably St. John's, I'm not sure how wide the gap is.

Butler is establishing itself as a bottom-feeder with us, with a pathetic performance at X. Next week at Hinkle is definitely a winnable game. The pitchforks are out for Matta.

But they got Ajayi in the portal.

But they got Ajayi in the portal.

he's one of the few guys who has shown up. 22 and 12 tonight. Their freshman PG was sick and he's only starting because their portal PG is out for the season.

Ajayi would look awesome in blue and gold.

Ed Cooley after Georgetown's loss to UConn:

"There's a lot worse happening right now than Georgetown losing a basketball game... You know what we are? We're blessed. We're blessed to be 9-9, we're blessed to be 1-6 in the league. It could be a lot worse."

Sounds like a shot at MU.

Through January 19, the visiting team has won more games than the home team in BEast play.

THIS didn't age well! 

[MU82]

There is UConn, and maybe St. John's. And then "the rest."

We have beaten 2 of the rest. And we had legit chances to beat 4 others ... and, as has been chronicled once or twice, we're not very good. It's just not a good league this season.

We'll have plenty more shots at victory; hopefully we'll make a few of them.
