Mon 11/25 BE Game Thread (4 Games).

1. Huh? A lot of folks dinged Duke for barely winning at home vs East Carolina and Vermont? Duke was #6 and now they're still #6.

2. The Big East has 7 losses total as of right now... of the 7, there were 3 vs ranked opponents... of the other 4 losses, in each of those games, the Big East team held a lead of 10+, 14+, and as much as 16 point leads. What all of us as a ten team group have done over the last 23 days has been beyond anyone's expectations, even mine, and I'm a big homer.

3. Has anyone been able to compile the list of both the BE and ACC vs top-25, top-50, top-100, and top-200 schools?

If you remember, many of the posters downplaying these results were doing the same when it came to the BE's undeniable recruiting success this year. ACC/AAC plants I tell you.

Duke/UNC/Kentucky are to college hoops what the Yanks are to baseball. They will always be protected because of that. This is why they get the benefit every time of calls. That's also why they are always who ESPN talks about. Duke and Kentucky will always be ranked crazy high even if they lose everyone.

X is pulling away with a 55-40 lead with 13:30 to go.

Good job Xavier…AB is very scrappy and it seems they make 75% of their 3's. Nice job going down and scoring regardless.

#6Ohio St. is getting all it can handle at home by a game Wyoming 48-47. 10 mins left. While #3 Kentucky is getting clobbered by Cleveland st 44-33, at home too! Posters need to lay off the BE.

Hard to get excited about Abilene Christian, whose noteworthy alums includes boxer Randall "Tex" Cobb. Why is this game being played?

[TheHall]

Also Texas Tech is getting crushed by Pitt in Brooklyn 44-17 at the half. I'll take it.

Hoosier, SJ would be down by 20 right now to AB. They are insane from 3

Another solid performance from Xavier. Nice win guys.

This is going to be a VERY tough game for Marquette…ASU is pumped, the crowd is nuts, they can shoot and they are long blocking shots like Obekpa out there. Wow. Didn't realize ASU was this good.
