Three games that we can win.

St John's should press and run from the opening tip, seeing how UCF stumbled vs West Virginia so badly in their 97-12 loss.

How funny is it that Butler can get payback vs Holtmann? When has a scenario like this ever happened so quickly? Parcells to the Jets vs New England? Ed Cooley did play Fairfield early in his first year at Providence, but the circumstances were completely different.

DePaul has been playing some great hoops and really deserves a W. They've looked good and could run the table once they get by Terry Porter's Pilots. Their losses are all good, against Notre Dame (4 pts down at half) Michigan State (tied at half), and Oregon State (OT loss). Max Strus has a reputation as a sharpshooter so if he can get hot DePaul can get rolling.

The year after Altman left Creighton to go to Oregon, we ended up playing him for 3 games in the CBI tournament. I can see 3-0 but I could also see 0-3....hopefully 2-1. Butler winning would be huge, they've just looked bad in the PK80 though.

Huge games for St John's and Butler if they want to go dancing.

St John's already has the Duke game coming which will be really tough. UCF is shorthanded I think. Kind of game you have to win to go dancing.

For Butler it's even more important. Got the 2 losses already and games up with Utah and Purdue left. more than 3 OOC losses makes your margin of error in conference play much lower, especially considering how tough the conference will be.

For DePaul- they've had the #41 SOS so far in the country- and that's with playing 0-4 Delaware State. After this, only Northwestern really left.

St Johns vs UCF is UGLY! If either team hits 50 they'll win going away... Thought it was just Bull, but StJ can't figure out the zone with him out either.

[kmacker69]

StJ escapes with a 46-43 win... Yes that's the final!

Now we need Butler to have some fire today against The Suckeye's!

[Jet915]

Wow, that was an ugly game but SJU pulls it off.

I know St John's survived, but I always like fouling up 3 in that situation. what do you guys think?

I hope most people are watching the NFL. That was an awfully ugly game. Glad to get out with the W.

I normally do but UCF had only hit one 3 all game. They did get 2 wide open looks at the end of the game though
