Looks like St. John's will pull this one out, I'll give them this, their 15 blocks this game will probably be more than Creighton gets all year.

Also worth mentioning 5 star freshmen Rysheed Jordan was not in the game tonight. Some issue in one of his classes…Lavin benched him.

I'm not religious, but Monmouth has the basketball gods with them tonight. All they have to do is get near the hoop, throw it up and it goes in.

Yeah, they'll never shoot like this again. Shots hit front of rim, then bounce in. The guard does a blind up and under and it goes in like Dr J... Harrison shooting 95% but misses front end of 1-and-1.

Sanchez got an offensive rebound, then his teammate shoots a 3 immediately without running clock off with a minute left, and it goes in...
Just get the W, that's all that matters... congrats!.

You guys did an amazing job coming back against a damn good Vandy team. They are never the kind of OOC team you want to play. Glad most of the Big East took care of business.

I mean it was Oklahoma…always a quality program. SHU still should have won and choked, but no offense, SHU was not one of those teams expected to do a lot this year. Pack it up and come out hard next game. It's not like you just lost to NJIT.

And any other Big East team would be winning by 40 right now against Monmouth. We are winning by 1.

Yeah, I know expectations from outside the program are low, but a lot of people around the program really believe that this team is seriously underrated. That's why this one stings. It was a chance to make a statement- and they had it. They had OU beat relatively comfortably, and then inexplicably gave it away. And now instead of being in a can't lose situation tomorrow, they're in a can't win situation.

Thanks man! You guys are easy to root for. Good job getting it done too.

I saw just a couple of highlights of Oklahoma vs Seton Hall... in fairness to the Pirates, Oklahoma was completely hacking and tackling (even on the last shot by Edwin I think) in the last 15 seconds, just praying the refs wouldn't call a foul... and they got away with it...

I turn the game off at halftime. I was to embarrassed to watch the second half. 23pnt fav and only a 2 pnt halftime leads???
I really hope you`re right Lavinwood that he was just trying things out, because htf will they beat anyone good?

Longwood on Tuesday, guess we`ll struggle against them as well.

As for the others.
G-Town bounced back real nicely.
Great freaking comeback by PC (SEC SEC SEC huh? oh wait nm, that`s football)
Bad loss for SHU
Nova struggled vs Delaware
and yeah the Redmen looked like crap.
