Big East Tournament evening session open thread
I suppose we're rooting against Pitt and UConn, but who really knows at this point?
Enjoy the games.

Refused admittance to Bernie Madoff Ponzi proceedings as authorities feared an assassination attempt .
Like Oswald, he described nature of his long covered parcel as, “curtain rods.”

I'm decently excited
But super excited for Syracuse/UConn for some reason.
by Mike Rutherford on Mar 12, 2009 7:12 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
perhaps because
syracuse has a legit shot to win, and uconn losing in the quarters could pave the way for us to get a 1?

WVU...
…like most teams, doesn’t have an answer for Blair.
by CardsFan922 on Mar 12, 2009 7:10 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
they need monster games from ruoff and butler
to have a realistic shot. i’m thinking 50 combined pts, at least

Butler v. Sam Young
Is a great matchup to watch.

I'm with Quinn1979...
….NFW MSU can make the final four. I never want to see an Izzo-coached team late in March, but if they somehow get a 1 seed I’ll take their bracket – I think it goes OU/Memphis/MSU in terms of 1/2 I want to see.
I reallllllllly want UNC again – but only in the Final Four.
by CardsFan922 on Mar 12, 2009 7:19 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
would rather have memphis than oklahoma personally
but as long as we avoid unc i’ll be giddy.
i don’t like the fact that three of the 7s are utah, byu, and butler. seems teams like that always give us fits.
by doctorofdunk on Mar 12, 2009 7:23 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Normally I would agree with you...
….but do you think the OK players would remember that humiliation from last year at all? And I don’t think they’d remember it in a “we have to get our honor back” but in a “that’s all the same guys and uh-oh that little #2 and that #33 guy are sorta freaking me out” way.
Maybe I’m wrong and our guys would be overconfident.
But I think we have the psychological edge in that game after that beatdown last year.
by CardsFan922 on Mar 12, 2009 7:27 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
that is a good point
and a real possibility, i just think that oklahoma’s supporting cast is drastically better this year and that nobody really scares me that much from calipari’s con men besides tyreke (and if he can beat us by himself, hats off).
probably a coin flip as you said. important thing is NO UNC
by doctorofdunk on Mar 12, 2009 7:29 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
i think i'm the only one here who thinks memphis is good and would rather not play them
by cardscott5 on Mar 12, 2009 8:00 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
i confess i haven't seen them play in cusa
but isn’t it tyreke and the bench from last year’s team? dozier, anderson, kemp, etc.?
by doctorofdunk on Mar 12, 2009 8:09 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
forde's line convinced me
memphis has as many big east losses this year as we do this year, except they played 4 big east games, not 18.
by doctorofdunk on Mar 12, 2009 8:12 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
also wondering
what everyone thinks marquette’s seed will be? i think anything lower than a 6 would be unfair.
by doctorofdunk on Mar 12, 2009 7:18 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
If Pitt....
…is down less than one possession at half, or up, they win this going away. Dixon is keeping Blair on the bench as long as he can, no way he puts him back in while the game is close.
by CardsFan922 on Mar 12, 2009 7:46 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
agreed
there is no way this group of seniors is going home tonight in a tournament they’ve ruled.
by doctorofdunk on Mar 12, 2009 7:48 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Assuming of course...
….that Blair stays out of foul trouble.
If he picks up foul #3 before the under-16 it is going to come down to the wire.

i wish we played the night game
i missed being in the game thread. talking in these threads isn’t the same. i’m rooting for west virginia just because i picked them to upset pitt in the pool.

i’m for pitt in this one, but they are getting some friendly whistles, no wonder they thing MSG is their home court

these refs suck
and bilas is ripping them

by Ben Go CARDS on Mar 12, 2009 8:20 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
maybe if pitt loses here, they will actually make a run in the ncaa
instead of them normally making a run in the big east and losing early in the ncaas
by cardscott5 on Mar 12, 2009 8:27 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
worth noting
that without last saturday’s win and a little help from pitt, we’d be the ones struggling vs. west va tonight.

WVU is really locking this down..
….I couldn’t watch the first 7 minutes that closely, although I did see Ebanks’s awesome dunk in transition. What has happened? how has WVU slowed down Blair?
by CardsFan922 on Mar 12, 2009 8:28 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
i can't wait
for pitt and uconn to lose tonight so the analysts can fault us if we win the tourney for not beating pitt and uconn en route.

this has been a horribly officiated tournament
I expect better officiating in the Big East Championship. I know the Big East has a “let ’em play” tradition but they are allowing absolute muggings… and then turning around and calling ticky-tack fouls. Awful, awful reffing.
I wanted Pitt to win this game so they could tire out UConn tomorrow night… but on the plus side, the one team that’s ever beaten us in the Big East tourney is now gone.

by cardscott5 on Mar 12, 2009 9:14 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
yup. They will get it over us
unless we win the BET. Total crock of shit, but I see it happening
by twistedwedge on Mar 12, 2009 9:15 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Is Pitt even a lock for a 1 seed now?
by twistedwedge on Mar 12, 2009 9:13 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Because Uconn didn't beat them...
…it makes the #1 seed question even more of a judgement call
by JustCards on Mar 12, 2009 9:16 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
so if we win the BET, its us
Conn, UNC and Memphis St? but if UConn loses..?
by twistedwedge on Mar 12, 2009 9:17 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Then it us and ...
…US…Haw haw haw
In your FACE DIGGER!
by JustCards on Mar 12, 2009 9:18 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
but, what if we beat providence, nova and syracuse, hypothetically?
i think memphis would get a 1. does it matter though?
by cardscott5 on Mar 12, 2009 9:19 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
dunno man
I just like to hypothesize.
I think if UConn loses Michigan St or Dook take their spot.

I wasn't just talking about the Big East
I was talking about everything. Oklahoma losing. Memphis State barely scraping by. Kansas losing to Baylor.
I was also talking about recently, not just tournament. Pitt lost to Providence in the final weeks. UConn lost to Pitt in the final game. Marquette dropped 5 of 6. Oklahoma lost to Mizzou in the final week.
We and Memphis State are the only ones winning all our games down the stretch like we need to.

They can’t even make their layups now.

by doctorofdunk on Mar 13, 2009 12:56 AM EDT reply actions 0 recs
Our line-up at this point....
…would be Kuric, Delk, Goode, Will Scott and Earl.
Everyone else would have fouled out a LONG time ago.
