Yeah, it's definitely time to stop the bleeding for Hall and X, both on 3 game losing streaks.

Goooooo Johnnies!!!

Man Seton Hall loves to flop.

That sequence by Delgado is the perfect example of why I dislike that part of his game so much. He is an elite rebounder, but on that play he took a mild inadvertent shot to the face and went all drama queen/soccer player. Instead of sucking it up and hustling back on D, he puts 2 hands to his face and bends over whining that he didn't get a call. But when Desi steals a pass he "recovers" real quick to take advantage of a cherry picking dunk, except for the fact that he blew it and Desi had to clean up the rebound. Glad he had a laugh after that.

Good win for Seton Hall. Nice to see them put the game early and win convincingly, that should be big for confidence ahead of a huge game Wednesday against Butler. A SHU win would suddenly put the Big East back in line for 6 tournament bids.

Not excited for DC on Wednesday. For whatever reason, Hoyas give the Jays troubles.

I wouldnt be worried we suck

I was at the Siena-Manhattan game, so I didn't see any Big East games today. But what happened in the Georgetown-Xavier game? 49 free throws for Xavier to 14 for the Hoyas? I don't think I've ever seen a line like that before.
