At least 7 Big East teams are on ESPN2 or ESPN full court today and I'm going to watch them all! Get to see UNLV play Louisville even to see what kind of team UC beat. I haven't seen Providence play as yet and it's a key team for UC because UC plays them twice. Same with St. John's. I hope Providence and St John's look bad so that UC has a good chance to pick up 4 wins you know. Be another one of those days I will have basketballs for eyeballs again.

Rutgers has played terrible - wish UC could play them 2 times too. Rutgers is 140th ranked, and lost to some lower ranked teams.

With the way Providence presses and our bad ball handling,i don't see them as an easy win.Especially not on the road.
Rutgers,SHU,St.John's and USF have looked kind of bad,but i know USF didn't have their whole roster together all year.
Depaul has looked kind of bad too the 3 times i seen them.

Wow I haven't seen Depaul at all and have been disappointed in them since Wainwright became coach because I always liked him and thought he was a great coach. He sure isn't getting the job done at Depaul though for whatever reason. They are calling for his head already.

Depaul has a really good player in Dar Tucker,but he tries to do too much.
Koshwal is a double-double guy,he missed the Northwestern game i seen them play and they ended up scoring only 36 points in that game losing 63-36.
They have experienced guards in Will Walker and Currie,but they play even worse than our guards on offense.
They let Morgan State comeback and beat them at home and got lucky vs Liberty.That is a game on the road i see UC winning.We owe em one.

Good thing UC isn't playing Rutgers at home today. They have Pittsburg down 2 with 2 minutes to go in the half. Up by 4 now 27 seconds to go in the half.

Rutgers still up on Pitt. by 4, 11 minutes to go. I'd take the Rutgers guards Rosario, Chandler, Farmer and Coburn over any 4 UC has playing right now.

UNLV up on the Ville. I hope that holds. Good for our RPI (although bad for the conference)

UNLV wins 56-55........ 25 charactersOn balance good for us. Raises our RPI and Louisville will have a plenty high RPI when we beat them.

UC had better W over Louisville. UNLV did. WKU did. Even Minnesota did.

UC had better W over Louisville. UNLV did. WKU did. Even Minnesota did.When the season is over, Minn. will be a "quality loss" for Louisville.

All 4 former CUSA teams are looking pretty 2nd tier (or lower) right now in the BEAST.

Not exactly on the latter. Louisville and Marquette are contenders. DePaul couldn't even contend in C-USA and has no business being in B-East.
