oh yeah brian, Providence is definately a different team now...was it their latest game in which they beat Seton Hall in OT (a team that cuse beat by 25) that finally made you realize that this team was destined for great things?
You mean the same Seton Hall team that just beat Georgetown at home?
The same Georgetown team that beat Syracuse by 14?
C'mon man.... give me a fuckin break.
Comparing how Syracuse played a team at home, with how PC played against that same team on the road is a joke.
Syracuse is a different team at home. PC wouldn't be within 10 AT Syracuse, but its different at Providence. Anyone who follows CBB should know the importance of HCA.
Oh ya... and if you wanna compare how they did in similar situations,
PC lost to Georgetown at Georgetown by 7.
Syracuse lost to Georgetown at Georgetown by 14.
oh wowwww... you sure made your point.

Grab Cuse moneyline(+115) while you can, doubt it will even be offered in 4 to 5 hours. I have a feelin by tip time Cuse will be favored, this game jumped out at me when I first looked at the board as a profitable game.

I cant comment much on these 2 teams, but ive had convo's with BrianL before and he is pretty hard up for his team, and I understand that, but from what ive read from him in many posts, he comes off a bit sensitive to his team.
This is a site where we are supposed to help others, not be obnoxsious and call other people out etc.
I just hate it that people assume PC is the same PC from last year and the first 7 games of this year.
There's people that follow CBB and know what there talking about, and there's people who don't and just follow ESPN.
Many of the people that argue with me are from the ladder. You don't see the Stuckeys, KooseHounds, and Birds of covers arguing with me. Its always the people who have 200 posts and are complete squares.
Yesterday, I say Wisconsin 2nd half is one of my biggest plays of the year. 6 people then come on, all who have less then 300 posts, and tell me I'm wrong. Guess what? When I make a play or state a fact lkike that, its usually right when it comes to this sport. I spend hours everyday following CBB. I do my research. If I state a stat, or make a comment, its usually something that is a fact that I have spent time RESEARCHING.
Crus, what have I stated thats wrong or homerish? That they have improved? Any mo mo that has followed this team at all this year would see a huge difference, mainly because they finally have a healthy PG, in how they palyed early in the season to how they are playing now.
Syracuse has major injuriies..... PC is hyping this up as the biggest game in 5 years tonight. PC is above "average" team, I think this is a known FACT. What is the issue? How is this being a homer?

Providence sucks dude I'm sick of hearing this guy make a case for this sorry team, your biggest win of the year was against Cinncinatti. Who cares who beat who by what, Cuse will go in there tonite and win by at least 10, and at the end of the day if Providence wins what good is it going to do you? You will still be the sorry program that you always are and over your head in the big east. CUSE tonite

Brian, first off, let me state I didnt mean any disrespect.
My point was that you came in this thread and you stated
"PC is average???
Amazing how ignorant people here are when it comes to teams that are under the radar.
PC Is an above average team, playing a huge game at home against a team who is beaten up and has played terrible on the road.
Go ahead... bet on Syracuse."
You seemed to take offense based on the fact that he called PC average. I have no problems with you arguing your beliefs, right or wrong, but the "Go ahead bet on Syracuse" and calling this poster "Ignorant" without any specific facts other than "PC is average" seems a bit sensitive to me no?
You seem to know your PC stuff and Big East stuff, no doubt about that man...but when I read your post, it came off as irate that someone called your team "average". Argue against that all you want, but the way you came at it made it sound off base.
I do not think you stated anything homerish or wrong. In fact, you know a lot more about PC basketball than I do, so I wouldnt question anything you stated. I just was commenting about how you came into the thread, thats all.

I do remember a couple of years ago you and I had a discussion about URI/PC game and I dont know exact words, but you basically gave URI no chance...I think that was the game URI was at home for and they did beat PC. Regardless of that outcome I remember you were offended by my selection and came off sensitive. PC gets dogged in the BE..I understand that, and I am sure you are sick of the cuse/gtown etc fans, but none the less you came at this thread hard and qucik

Just been taking a beating from alotta the newcovers that come and go here, even though when I rarely post plays, they usually are consistent winners.
LOVE URI tonight.....
HOpe you are right. I cant back a team that really doesnt show me grit and determination to WIN a game close against a good team. I still think they are a step below Temple and Dayton and clearly more than a step behind X...

I guarantee Boeheim won't risk Onuaku for this one game unless he is 100%,which it sounds like he definitely isn't.......IMO he won't play..........we all know that Rautins is out.........that being said it appears to me that PC -2 is rather small on their home court, consideing the nations leader in FG percentage and one of the best 3 point shooters are out ........with the snow and ice storm in the east, I wonder if it will be a much smaller crowd than anticipated, lessening the 4 point home crowd advantage........

I was actually talking about taking Providence...not Syracuse guys. I didn't wind up taking them......which sucks. It caught my attention that a ranked team (Syracuse was catching points).....and I knew the public would be pounding Cuse. Seemed too easy...the line moved down to 1.5 with my book which was the right way...so I stayed away.
Hindsight's 20-20...huh!
