Butler wins vs TT at home. And Creighton easily taking care of OK state on the road.
Tomorrow night big night for the conference vs B12:
6th ranked Houston at X SJU at WVU Iowa St at DePaul 4th ranked UCONN at 5 Kansas
I feel like Friday night used to be mid major night for college BB but not anymore. I like the new scheduling where it doesn't seem to matter anymore. Also noticed BE play starts Dec 19 similar to the last couple years which is also nice not waiting til NYE.

Nice night for the conference. I feel as though these 2 games were our easiest layups. From here on out, the Big East will be challenged.

Man went to the beach for NYE when the bullock & Austin suspension. I was at dinner soooo salty that they didn’t suit up. Was reading the other board at that time.

Big win for SJU on the road in WVU. Pitino is going to have this team humming by mid season. They could and probably will challenge for top 5 spot.

Pitino is a great coach.
He will maximize what his players can accomplish.

“ The teams combined for 46 fouls and 63 free throws. Soriano appeared to lose a tooth when he was hit with an elbow under the St. John’s basket in the second half. West Virginia outscored St. John’s 31-14 in free throws but the Mountaineers went 4 of 8 at the line in the final minute.
Jordan Dingle’s layup four minutes into the second half put St. John’s ahead for good and Soriano’s layup gave the Red Storm their largest lead, 63-54, with six minutes left. Slazinski followed his own three-point play with a bank shot to pull West Virginia within 70-68 with two minutes left. But the Mountaineers got no closer. Alleyne hit a layup and a 3-pointer after that to give St. John’s a cushion.
West Virginia jumped ahead 22-15 midway through the first half before Soriano sank a layup and three free throws and Ledlum made a dunk and a 3-pointer during a 10-0 run. The Mountaineers recovered from the six-minute scoring drought to forge a 36-36 halftime tie.“
Close, foul laden game. See above excerpt.

Is that the PC team we can expect with JP back in the lineup? If so, we have something cooking in Provy.
We have been a little choppy with JP sidelined,against good comp.
....gotta love friartown...

Georgetown loses on a buzzer three to TCU 84-83 with the shooter out of bounds with his left foot on the sideline.

What will get lost in the refs missing the foot out of bounds is that Cooley should have instructed Epps to miss the second foul shot. There were 2.7 seconds left and TCU didn’t have a timeout. If they miss the second shot, TCU would have likely had to heave from beyond half court.
