Game 32: BET Round 2, Marquette 57, St. John's 55
Box score Marquette wins, 57-55. St. John's season possibly ends with a record of 17-15, 7-13 Big East. Marquette advances to play Villanova at 2PM in Madison Square Garden, with a record of 21-10, 12-7 Big East. The game of basketball is unpredictable. But I think an experienced observer had to...
Game 32: Big East Tournament Round 2 - Marquette
At 2 pm on ESPN St. John's takes on Marquette, the team who... well... you might remember that painful 63-61 loss at Carnesecca Arena. Or last year's thrashing in the Big East Tournament after the Red Storm's first round win over Georgetown. Do the Golden Eagles just have the Red Storm's...
Game 27: Marquette 63, St. John's 61
Boxscore A buzzer beating shot. A game so close that the Red Storm could taste victory over a good team. "I think this was the hardest game to lose. I’d rather lose by 20 points than a buzzer beater. We played hard the whole game and it was a hail-mary shot that ended it." - D.J. Kennedy...

Given what happened last week - nut punches, bleeding, shot clock malfunctions and a general air of disaster despite the...
TheLiveBlog: UConn vs. Marquette
Not to make too much of an understatement, but tonight is big. UConn is No. 2 in the country, Marquette is No. 8. Marquette features incredibly guard play, UConn has a dominating frontcourt. Marquette is undefeated at home, UConn has yet to lose on the road. By the end of the season, both could...
Tom Crean.
It's going to be said often, but this is a solid hire. Not an obvious home run, but not a stretch by any means. Crean is 42 years old and has a Final Four on his resume and eight years as a head coach (about a .650 winning percentage at Marquette). The biggest knocks: a hot temper (come on, we've...
Creanball, part I.
I promised a basketball post this week, and so here it is, although I didn't have as much time as I had hoped. I'm not a scheme expert, by a long shot, so those who have been around since basketball season know that taking a look at tempo-free stats tends to be my focus during basketball season....

So since 10 conference wins for Syracuse wasn't...
