BE Tues 2/2 - 2g - GU-BU, PC-DePaul...

[Xudash]

2 games in the Big East here on Groundhog Day:

7pm, Georgetown at Butler. FS1.
9pm, Providence at DePaul. FS1.

Tonight there will be great hoops, Matthew McConaughey Lincoln commercials, Lexus commercials where a hot brunette with ruby red lips sniffs a guy's neck in Paris, and Bill Murray with Andie McDowell at some point.

Butler vs Georgetown is a must see, as each team can grab the inside track to being our 5th tourney team as we approach the last turn.

DePaul at home got off to a 9-0 lead vs Xavier last game, and did the same a couple of other times. They haven't been able to sustain their leads, either due to fatigue, lack of depth, and a bit of a talent gap. I think they've done well in playing solid ball, unlike Purnell's teams, which often lost focus.

Also, the commercial where the blonde woman in the red jacket crosses a river with the help of a guy in a Range Rover... couple of questions:
1. Why doesn't the guy continue driving her to her destination?
2. Why is he driving offroad in such a desolate place?
3. Where is she traveling to, and where did she come from?
4. She seems to have been unprepared for the river crossing... has she never traveled this route before?
5. Both of them should be wearing winter hats, they're gonna catch colds.

Well done!

So glad our boys from Indiana won tonight. Butler has to rally till the end. We need them in the NCAA.

I would also like to see Georgetown somehow make it into the NCAAs but that's doubtful...

Its gonna be an interesting February. Things are heating up!!!

The Hoyas have been brutal to watch this year. What a disappointment.

Looks like Bentil is Ok after a nasty ankle roll! DePual up 4 with 6:34 in the half...

You do understand even after tonight, both teams need 5 wins to go to the tourney. And the 2nd game of course is at Georgetown.....

DePaul jumped out to a 8-nil lead, and kept it at 8 to 10 for much of the half. It then became a tie at around the 8minute mark at 26 all or so. Stimage rolled like an elephant onto Bentil's ankle, so Ben has been hobbling since then. The Blue Demons have some shooters, and have been crashing the offensive glass. 16-2 advantage in 2nd chance points for DePaul. 38's at the half.

Friars going with the "Defense Optional" Game Plan tonight.

It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for 'em.
