Providence is not good. Game should not be this close.


They have been playing well. We were favored by *eight* — that’s it.

They may not be great, but they already have 3 Big East wins. Lost to UConn by 3 and St John's by 2. Up 13 at the under 8:00 is pretty respectable. Perhaps it's your expectations that are out of alignment. Blowout wins in Big East play are fairly infrequent.

Anybody else think that when his college career is over, Ash could Billy Hoyle his way to some very nice playground paydays? A backwards ball cap and a beat up pair of sneaks, he’ll be in business.

The bench is shooting 90%. Time to buy a powerball ticket.

Because the universe tends to gravitate toward the mean, I expect Miller to make his next 17 threes to get back to about 40%

Even though he’s been rough at times, I love Neal’s attitude. He’s frustrated, but doesn’t pout. He’s all gas, even when things aren’t going his way.

Good half there, especially by Traudt and Miller. When they hit 3s, they're a very good team. And I think Fedor is a spot up shooter. Another scoring option is necessary without Pop.
