Big East: Can we say OVERRATED?!!

[Bravesfan]

First Bradley beat DePaul 78-58.

Now tonight we have this:

Butler 71 Notre Dame 69
Vermont 77 #14 Boston College 63!
Idaho St. 40 #20 Marquette 32, early in the 2nd half, with ISU on a 10-0 to start the 2nd half!

Are you kidding me?!

Aaah! I forgot BC is in the ACC now, not the Big East. Still a sweet win for Vermont!

Darn it, Marquette won 59-56 in OT. Nice try Idaho St! Better luck next time.

Idaho State had some pretty decent teams in the late 50's and early 60's, plus a memorable run to the Elite 8 in 1977. Ever since, it's been a very long climb for the Bengals to get back to respectability. Marquette has not been impressive in the early going this season, but there are plenty of games left for improvement (or deprovement?).

Good nickname!

Hmmm, who did UConn lose to in the Elite Eight last year? (Not meant to be disrespectful to George Mason).
