Big East 2024 -25 Results

Marquette vs. UConn on February 1st is going to be one hell of a matchup.

Energy in that building should be the best any Big East Arena sees all season.

What we've seen is that UConn does not have the killer instinct to obliterate opponents late in games this season. They shot 1 for 9 to end this game and a 24 point lead at the 7:00 mark ended at eight.

1st time really paying close attention to DePaul.

They look to have a much better roster than recent years. They've got some elite shooters and some good athletes playing above the rim. Somehow still 0-5 in league play.

And somehow, they are down by 17 on their home court early in the 2nd half as I write this.

Ya. Crazy.

They are shooting 38% from 3 as a team this season. You'd think they'd be able to keep games closer with that number.

Why not give your team some credit for turning an embarrassing blowout into a modest loss?

My wife and I make the 3 1/2-hour trip to DC every year for the MU/GT game and stay overnight. This year we will not be casually watching the game as we have been able to for years. Your team looks very good, and in addition to home court advantage and wanting to deliver payback, they will improve as the season goes on. I wish the game was scheduled earlier in the BE conference season rather than near the end.

DePaul's gonna be on a 38-game conference losing streak when MU goes in there.

I've seen some pretty good Marquette teams lose to some absolutely horrendous DePaul teams. So I won't. Put me in, Coach!

Good Lord that's bad

He was really hoping for a close game so he could warn us how scary DePaul is before Tuesday's game.

MU by 26

Just surprised how DePaul shoots so well and still can't win.

When I saw this, I thought "okay, let's not very overly hyperbolic here."

Then I looked at the record. Good lord. It reminds me of when they lost 24 straight, managed to win one, then dropped another 24 straight.

Of course, the sandwich win was Marquette in Chicago.

I've filed for the Trademark for "Holtmann just gets it done" so all you losers have to pay me soon

[MU82]

Good one going on between Nova and St. John's. Very physical so far.

[DoctorV]

I think I'd like for Villanova to win this one.

You can always count on Neptune to fold and lose games later on

[tower912]

The refs have made their choice.

[CountryRoads]

Lappas just loves foul calls. There can't be enough fouls called as far as he's concerned. It's weird.

RJ Luis loves exaggerating contact

Ugh.

Though Nova also played cruddy down the stretch.

Maybe we can pay him to teach our guys how to do it convincingly. Scoopers bitching we don't make it to the line often enough, so...

[Cobeen]

St. John's plays very good defense and rebounds well but is a lousy shooting team team.

The Johnnies did a good job controlling Dixon who had just 2 rebounds, and shot 6 of 19 getting 18 points for the game.

[Billy Hoyle]

Ashworth still 0-7 on 3s!
Would've been nice if Butler would have hung tough.

The natives are restless at Butler, but Matta reportedly has a $4 million buyout and Butler cannot afford that.

They also allegedly have their highest ever rated recruiting class signed (we'll see if any ask for a release) so Matta is likely to get another year while making changes to the staff. They'll keep McCaffery around to ensure another season of Caitlin Clark sightings at Hinkle. Butler will still have trouble getting any impact transfers due to their low NIL budget.

It's a decent class for them but their top 4 scorers are out of eligibility after this season. They theoretically get Jaimie Kaiser next season. Kaiser was either their best or second beat pickup last summer but they lost him to ankle surgery.

It's going to get worse before it gets better for Butler

for sure. Butler's "highest rated class ever" would be considered a disappointment at most BE schools. I think Bizjack will enter the Portal again and take an offer from somewhere else, realizing he's not worth what he thought he was worth during the last cycle, which led him back to Butler.

Sorry, every time I hear this kid's name I think of pancake batter.   

Like Bisquick and Hungry Jack!

[MU82]

I think of Bizjack Horseman.
