I only watched the duke-Auburn game half interested because I was doing other things, so I didn’t put much stock in my thought that the whistle was 1-sided. Typical dook shyt. Then I saw the stat near the end of the game where dook had a 30-7 advantage at the line:mjlol:

It's a Big East school on the West Coast. I feel like them, Loyola Marymount and St. Mary's would be perfect fits
Rui vs. Duke :yes:

side note: it's unfortunate that Gonzaga is located where it is because that team would fit in so well with the Big East

There was talk about this a year ago I believe ( The Big East commissioner Val Ackerman and the Midwest schools proposed this). Mark Few desperately wanted to join the Big East and create a Big East vs Big East ( West)

The East was suppose to be
-St. Johns
-Georgetown
-Nova
-Providence
-Seton Hall
-Butler

The west was supposed to be
-Gonzaga
-Creighton
-St. Mary’s
-Marquette
-Xavier
-DePaul


But the East coast universities didn’t want to travel out west yearly. Even Mark few said it in an interview

“We have no problem flying out east, they just don’t want to come here.

Honestly, just add Creighton, DePaul, Loyola Marymount and Chicago, St. Mary's, Gonzaga and BYU and Marquette.

Big East (West) and Big East (East)

The Big East is not taking BYU or any school with a football team.

Jeff Capel :leon:

Getting some good production out of his freshmen, that's the best win so far too against St. Louis. Almost has more wins already than Pitt had all last year. :mjlol:

I'm not saying that there isn't a well documented history of the calls going that way for Duke, but Zion is just going to draw a lot of fouls because these run of the mill college guys out there don't have the length or strength to defend him :yeshrug:


It would've been bad strategy for Duke not to send him and Barrett at the rim when their offense stagnated last night after Reddish got three fouls early in the first half. Zion needs to improve at FT shooting though.

Is this suppose to be some justification for the ft disparity being 34-9?

Let's get it.

Still rocking with Gonzaga, although it's going to be really tough for them to knock off Duke without Killian Tillie but I think they can do it.
