It was funny hearing Ewing complaining to the refs not realizing he was clearly heard on the broadcast. "All game you haven't called that and now you're going to call that? S*itty!". Some of the fouls were laughable...glad it's over. G'Town has the bigs, they just need good guards and they can be a tourney team in the top 5 again. I agree we need St. John's and Georgetown to be top tier Big East teams. Glad to hear we got over 16k at the Garden. Just imagine if we were in Villanova's place. You wouldn't be able to get a ticket to any St. John's game. The announcers said something similar along the lines of "imagine how crazy the crowds would be with the Johnnies playing consistently good basketball year after year". With the Knicks never winning it would take over the city.

DePaul has been playing great here at the end of the year. They look like a completely different team compared to November and especially compared to last year. They look to be playing as a unit. I happened to be at the Dunk last month for their blowout win, which could be a sign of good things next year.
Big losses are McCallum and Maric. Reed though looks good, and he can replace Maric. And McCallum had problems on D. Cain and Strus return for their senior years.

What was the B1G tournament attendance?

Y'all were able to offset that loss with signature wins against the big teams in the conference this year. We were not, I think that if someone blindly stared at our wins and losses you'd be in over us simply because of Nova and X while we just swept Creighton and Seton Hall. So no I do not think it's threatened you as much as it's threatened us.
Exactly. So the problem is not the DePaul loss but the failure to come up with a signature win. Missed opportunities against X and VU at home.
I think that your guys are going to the tournament regardless. Just don’t blow another one to DePaul.
I just don't see it unless they beat Nova. Things like what's happening in Brooklyn right now with Louisville up on Florida St by 25 do not help Marquette in the least.

Not sure where you got that number. Of course attendance numbers are always paid crowds. MSG did look to have more fans in the building than at the ACC.
ACC last night-17,732
Big East-16,866 (By far the best in the FS1 version of the Big East for a 1st round)
