Watched most of the Xavier-Nova game and have to say Scruggs, Nunge and Fremantle didn’t do much. Fremantle still plays defense like it is an optional activity.
Texas St. 47 Houston 80 Troy 69 Mercer 65 Alcorn St. 48 Oklahoma 72 And it sounds like the Big East is revisiting the forfeit rule:
High Point 68 Michigan St. 81 Eastern Illinois 50 Morehead St. 63 Seton Hall 65 Providence 70 Nicholls St. 90 Purdue 104 Central Arkansas 59 Texas A&M 85
I know there is a lot to be disappointed about this season, but if you look at just our losses then I'm slightly optimistic: KenPom Rankings (3) Houston (5) Purdue (19) Michigan State (63) Texas A&M I think we would have beaten A&M had Nze been available. So all in all, we are probably only one game behind where I thought we'd be. You get Hodges back on top of it, the freshmen and Chuck continue to improve, and we might just have a decent Big East season with a possible birth in March.

Creighton crushed Nova 79-59 on Dec 17 then turns around and loses to Nova 75-41 last night! 0-3 Marquette beat number 16 Providence 88-56 last night. Were these results because of coaching?
I knew the Troy win would carry us far this season!!! Crazy though that this is true Sent from my iPhone using Butler Hoops mobile app
Obviously Oklahoma is our best win but I figured DePaul was ahead of Troy in NET rankings but maybe not. Sent from my iPhone using Butler Hoops
