No, you guys have been the favorite.

They seem to be a major matchup problem for us, blowing us out last year and in our home game this year, and the game we lost at MSG it wasn't that close for most of it save for a late second half run by us that fell short. So we're 1-3 vs SJU in the last 2 seasons. I just don't like the way we're trending and they're trending and the matchup. It's also a home game for them. That said I expect Friar fans to make themselves known and it to be a good game, I just hope we can compete well and not get into a early hole. I worry about our seed should we lose. I still think we slip from 6 to 7 which isn't the worst thing, but want to avoid 8 seed because of the second round matchup against the 1.

2-3 DMac, you guys beat us in this game last season.

My God, how could I have forgotten that! thanks for the reminder and I apologize to my BE champion Friars of last season!

ESPN's site is wrong- they on the score board say PC is -1.5, but then when you go to their pick center, St John's is -1.5.

It should be a good game.

Four tourney locks going at it in NYC in the quarters of the conf tourney. The BIG EAST is indeed back. Really looking forward to PC-SJU and BU-X. I expect all 4 of those teams to play loose and with confidence, and just let it fly. It's like those 4 vs. 5 round 2nd games you see in the tourney. Should be a lot of fun.
