Saturday's Big East Games

CMON PC!

Here is the run for PC. Nova needs to withstand this and push it back to double digits.

Good to see PC fighting back a bit.

Wow they must not teach logic at Xavier because unless you're saying your own team is overrated that chant doesn't work for a team that's not in the top 25 and is below .500 in conference

Every X fan has to admit that shot clock violation on Fischer was BS they waited like 4seconds before calling that jump ball and started the shot clock before the ball was even in Lukes hands.

Also JP macura has a very punchable face.

I was astounded that the officials waited so long also since it seemed like they were giving the Marquette player an overly long chance to finally tie up the ball. I assumed that X would call a time out to assure that possession. Instead, the tie-up gave the ball to Marquette. There was only 1 second on the clock on the throw in. They ruled the Marquette player failed to get the shot off in time.

As far as officials having ca$h on the game for Xavier (as claimed by another MU fan on this thread) --- I think most Muskie fans would claim the opposite (if they were stupid enough to make such a comment at all).

You can disparage JP Macura all you want as an opposing fan, but we Xavier fans love the kid. He has icewater in his veins at crunch time (as you MU fans witnessed today). And he has improved his defensive skills remarkably over his freshman year last season. We are rejoicing in the knowledge that we will have JP for another 2 years after this one.

Gus and Tyreke calling it:
JOSH HART IS BIG EAST PLAYER OF THE YEAR!!

[NovaBall]

Double digit win on the road at #11 in the country?

Nova looking good.

[NovaBall]

Three players with double doubles for Villanova today.

Last time you have seen that?

This butler v St. John's game should be at the garden. Really sad that it is not.


Kansas state over Oklahoma this afternoon? If so, does the big east have the number one team in the nation?

[NovaBall]

Butler doing what they have to do on the road. Nice work.

The big one is still a few hours away. Seton Hall 5 pt favorites. That's the same number nova was over providence, as well as Oklahoma over Kansas state. 5 pt favorites are generall 65% odds to win. So 2 out of 3. We got the win from nova, looking for the win from seton hall, and a win from Kansas state to move nova to #1 in the polls and seton hall into the top 25!

Roosevelt Jones with the triple-double. 10/14/10. He was fantastic today.
