(5) Tuesday Big East Games 12/06/2016

[Red Rooster]

Should go 5-0. Honestly the most likely upset would be Lamar over Depaul.

Haha!

"Lamar" did upset the 'Jocks' QB with that toss.

[Bill Marsh]

Brown has won 2 of the last 4 games in this series. And those were good Friar teams!

Brown can't be taken for granted in this rivalry.

[Bill Marsh]

Wow! What a game going on at The Palaestra.

[marquette]

Yeah, La Salle definiteley making a game of this. Hopefully Nova pulls away here soon. PC looks pretty good. I know we have a 17 point lead but I'm still seeing a lot of mistakes on offense and defense.

Five games Tuesday night in the Big East:

Brown at Providence, 7pm.
La Salle at #1 Villanova, 7pm.
Fresno State at Marquette, 7:30pm.
Lamar at DePaul, 9pm.
Seton Hall at Hawaii, 9:30pm.

Under Ed Cooley, the Friars are like 54-1 at home vs non-conference opponents, with the only loss being to Brown. Did you know, back in the 80's and earlier Brown was nicknamed the Bruins? Did you know there's a huge stuffed Kodiak bear in their hockey rink lobby (last time i checked anyway)? Did you know that the Dunk might be closer to Brown than to PC? Of course, RISD is even closer, a pretty cool school... and i know of an HLoH moderator that is an alum from there... if you're spending a weekend in Providence and are looking for a quick cultural thing to do before a late tip-off vs the Friars, spend an hour at the RISD Art Museum*... then get dinner near RISD at Hemenway's for seafood, or head over to Federal Hill for Italian... each within walking distance, like 15 to 20 minutes... just wear winter clothing cuz it gets windy down along the river.

* yes, they have some nude sculptures and paintings.

I think Spats had anude sculpture. Is Spats still there?

LossSalle is such a joke.

A terrible conference partner that refuses to or simply is incapable of making the investments necessary in its program to be able to contribute at a high, sustainable level.

Tonight was obviously their Super Bowl. So, they make a few 3's late in the second half (which they probably would never normally make) to keep it close.

The 2 home run passes were brilliant. And the defensive rebound at :41 nailed it.

LossSalle will probably move on to lose its final OOC games to weak competition.

Good job Nova.

Thank God the A10 is firmly in the review mirror.

[marquette]

We are playing very poorly in the second half. These defensive lapses and stalls on offense can't happen Saturday against Wisconsin.

[ecasadoSBU]

Is Marquette gonna throw this game away. WTF! so pissed

[marquette]

Looks like we pulled it out but we have some things to figure out.

[handdownmandown]

For a minute there I thought we were going to have to put up with Sactown gloating and telling us all how Marquette was a bad addition to the conference and that they'll never move the TV needle.
