Providence

[Salt City Sooner]

I probably ought to be taken out back & shot for pointing this out before the game is over, but they’re smoking #6 Marquette 60-41 with 9:30 to go.

Providence wins it by 15, 72-57

Providence will probably be a quad 1 win for ou now after that win.

Providence has a good chance to be around 23-24 wins….they are 10-2 right now

Providence has a good chance to be around 23-24 wins….they are 10-2 right now

Not sure about that. They played well tonight no doubt....but the Big East is the 2nd best conference in the country and they will take some lumps before the season is over. I'm not sure I see them finishing in the top 4 in that conference (although I hope they do), but they definitely seem like a tournament team as of now.

 

[thegreyghost]

They are 10-2 after beating #6 ranked Marquette tonight

They have 19 games left plus the Big East tourney

think they stand a good chance winning both games with DePaul, Xavier and Georgetown to get to 16

They should beat St John, Seton Hall, Villanova, Xavier at home to get to 20

They would have home toss up games with Butler & Creighton…think there guards will give Creighton a lot of problems

I doubt they beat UConn at home or on the road

So they would need a couple road games at St. John, Seton Hall, Villanova and Xavier

Plus they have the Big East tourney to win a game or two

Providence was a very very very good win

One of providence’s best players, Bryce Hopkins, tore his ACL. Sucks for them and OU. We need them to keep winning.
