BIG EAST v. FOOTBALL 5 2021-2022

[redmen9194]

What. A. Week.. On Wednesday night, the Big East took it on the chin in the state of Indiana. First Michigan State came into Hinkle and left with a victory over Butler. Then a furious comeback by the Johnnies fell short in a two point loss to Indiana in a packed Assembly Hall. But the hopes of the Big Ten to grab a split were ended in the first Thursday night game. If you did not know why Ohio State never wanted to play Xavier at Cintas, now you know. The best college hoops team in Ohio finally got to prove it as the X-Men took out the Buckeyes to secure the first Gavitt Games win for tHe Big East. Then DePaul put an exclamation point on the Games with a win over Rutgers. So not only did the BEast win the series, it won 6-2 which is the biggest margin of victory for either conference in the history of the event. Also, overall, each league is 24-24 all time in the event. Just a great week for the Big East. Oh, and by the way, Marquette did not want to just pick on the Big Ten so they beat Ole Miss of the SEC and it looks like they will get West Virginia tomorrow.

Come back with me to February 2012 in Morgantown West Virginia if you will. The Big East was breaking up. The Mountaineers were leaving at the end of the season and Pitt and Syracuse had already announced they would be bolting in the near future. The Catholic 7 was still months away from entering the basketball lexicon, and Marquette had a conference game against West Virginia. Marquette won that game, but the story was after the final buzzer. As Take Me Home Country Roads blared over the speakers, Buzz Williams, head coach of the Golden Eagles, danced his way across mid-court for a post game interview with Raftery. The fans were irate and students were throwing water bottles at him. I personally thought it was pretty good. You know what else is pretty good? Shaka’s Golden Eagles decided they were not yet done with the Football 5 this week and handed the Mountaineers another loss. The Big F’ing East!
