One Big East game tonight, and it's a great one...

7pm, St John's at Georgetown, FS1.

Huge game, especially for SJU. Harrison seems like he may be back to 100% healthy.
Georgetown is back from a week off after an impressive at Seton Hall.
Looking forward to some running and gunning and bruising action.

I think this game will be a dogfight. Looking forward to this one.

Throw in Pointer and they wouldn't have stood a chance. haha

Imagine if they tried that with the 80's Hoyas?

Very nervous about this game. I feel like when we blew out G'Town by 20 last year they were due to dominate us for a while again with a few wins randomly sprinkled every few years.

G'Town always has a big, bruising team that usually dominates rebounding against us and gets tons of second chance points. I guess tonight will tell us if SJU is fool's gold or the real deal ready for the tourney. If we lose by single digits I can understand it and it would show they fought hard. If we get blown out it will make me think the team is all smoke and mirrors. If we win I will be beside myself and it sets us up with 3 home games and 1 away game to finish out the season with 19 wins.

Clearly not expecting a win, but this is the type of game we haven't won in the past. If we don't want to make tourney selection interesting we don't lose this game. If we want to have the tourney very much up in the air, we will lose handily. They surprised me with the Xavier win, now let's see what we can do vs. a better team.

Guess weather is to blame for attendance?
