BE Sat 12/19 - 8 Games...

Postby billyjack » Fri Dec 18, 2015 9:03 am

Last big day of non-conference action...

noon:
#12 Villanova at #8 Virginia, 12pm, ESPN2.
Auburn at #10 Xavier, 12pm.
Wichita State at Seton Hall, 12pm, Fox.
Unc Asheville at Georgetown, 12pm

early afternoon:
Northwestern at DePaul, 2pm.
Creighton at #3 Oklahoma, 2pm, ESPN-U.

late afternoon:
#17 Butler at #9 Purdue, 5pm, Crossroads Classic.
nightcap:
Rider at #14 Providence, 8pm.

- Four games at noon, two more at 2pm...
- There's no reason Villanova can't take Virginia... I'm thinking the OU game can serve as a wake up call.
- X should roll vs a weak rebuilding Auburn team.
- Georgetown is gonna be pissed.
- Seton Hall with a great opportunity to getvin the NCAA conversation.
- A win by the Blue Demons will go a long way. Northwestern looked terrible winning at Va Tech.
- Creighton playing with house money vs a team they beat last year.
- Two ranked teams in the Crossroads. Would be a great win.
- Looking for a healthy PC team to coast.

just a huge day.
Nova/Virginia- KP UVA 64-60- nova 30% chance winning
Auburn/Xavier- KP X 92-72 94%
Wichita/Seton Hall- KP SH 65-64 56%
UNC Asheville/Georgetown KP Geo 78-67 85%
Northwestern/DePaul- KP NW 70-67 Dep 37%
Creighton/Oklahoma- KP Okla 88-72 Cre 9%
Butler/Purdue- KP Pur 81-73 But 25%
Rider/Providence- KP PC 73-59 92%

so projected to go 4-4. earlier would have been 3-5 but Wichita struggles early make Seton Hall the favorite.

I'm Glad we are getting some games! Exam week this year was worst than when I was in School. I need my Musketeer Fix! Go Muskies!

I agree. This week sucked without any games to watch. Should say it sucked even worse than no games when the one game we did see was Georgetown losing.
Nebraska by birth, Creighton by choice.

I hear you. We still don't play until Monday! At least I've got the Johnnies to cheer for tonight and a solid slate of games tomorrow.
This is my opinion. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
