Interesting comments from Mac on Kalk's jump hooks from outside the lane and how they've added some wrinkles to get him on the move. Kalk really struggles to back guys down using a "crab dribble". We've really seen that over the last couple of games vs Sanogo and Croswell. So while Kalk is effective scoring in the post. He is far, far less effective if he doesn't catch it deep.

KenPom has Jays 77-71 w/ a 72% win probability. I'm seeing early lines at Barstool and BetRivers Jays -7. I mentioned it a little in the PC game thread. I'm a little concerned, but also hopeful that 1 loss doesn't turn into 2.

Toughest game on the schedule IMO. Jays open up -2.5,-102 at FanDuel. Jason Benetti and Raftery on the call. Can't wait for Valentine's Day!

Also catch BJB tonight at 6:00 CST

Seeing Jays -3.5 open at Barstool and BetRivers for tomorrows game. KenPom has Jays 72-71.

Seton Hall on Wednesday and UConn on Sat. I'm feeling pretty optimistic for this game at Seton Hall. In the first matchup, CU dominated that matchup and was up by 32 at one point. Seton Hall really struggles offensively. They just beat DePaul yesterday, scoring 69 points. They were 30-45 from the FT line! We know the Jays aren't going to allow them to rack up a ton of points at the line.


Also, UConn hosts Marquette Tuesday

Jays -10 for tonight’s game vs Nova. Cats had Marquette on the ropes Wednesday night.

I hate these "no win" games. It's quite something having one of the conferences historically premier programs be a national embarrassment. A 29 game conference game losing streak is.....something. Jays favored by 13.5 on DK.

Should be a good night in conference. Nova at Marquette and Providence at Xavier.

Biggest game of the year. Despite 11:15 tip the place will be rocking. On Big CBS.

Jays favored by 11 at DK. Good night in the Big East with Xavier at UConn earlier in the night.

Jays -7, let's get this one and I'll feel pretty good going forward.

Big game Saturday

Ok this is my spot to piss off the constant negative nellys on the board.

Hearing a few talk about NET. Let me give you some historical info that may keep everyone engaged. Currently the Jays have #2 strength of schedule in the country. How important is that on selection Sunday? Read on.

A few years ago Vanderbilt had #2 SOS. Problem was they were like 19-15. A great debate went on. In or out. They were 2-12 vs Quad 1. They were something like 7-1 against Quad 2. Yeah 15 losses but 9 Q1 and 2 wins pretty strong. And the SOS.

I had them last team in over some strong mid majors and other power teams with 20 wins but with a much weaker SOS. In the end the committee selected them— siting the SOS. They were in the play in game but not the last team in.

Fast forward to CU. #2 SOS. Currently 9-8. Let’s project.

Wins @ home—X,Providence, Marquette, Nova, Gtn, STJ
Wins @ road— Gtn,Butler, SH, STJ,

So that’s 10-4 going forward including 1 home loss and 3 road losses. One win in BE tourney and that’s a 20-13 record. Plus that would be 4 quad ones and 6 quad twos.

I don’t think that’s a crazy run. And with those stats and SOS they would get in with room to spare.

Just shedding a little historical Bracketology light on the subject. Also pointing out that while many are ripping our difficult schedule — in the end it may be the thing that saves us.

Jays +3.5 open at DK tomorrow.

UConn is -2 at Marquette tomorrow. Should be a good night in the Big East.

Big stretch for the Jays as the play the top 3 teams in the league in a row

Huge game. UConn really short handed. Great chance for CU.

Last of the 3 must win home games tonight vs Seton Hall. Jays favored by 8.5-9 with a total around 136. Need this one before going to UConn and Xavier.

Merry Christmas

Thad Matta comes to town.

Important question here— who from the board is going to Vegas???

If enough interest will do some BJB event. Drinks on us. Let me know

Here we go. All Big East from here on out. Totally random comment here but i weirdly have a good feeling about this one.

Whatever happened to that guy? I feel like I used to hear about him back in the Doug and then the Marcus Z years.
I feel like quite a few people are actually believers in therapy/meditation/mindfulness and personally, I thought those teams were a bit stronger mentally.
This team could use a head reset.

For the first time in many. many years (maybe never) I'm not nervous about this game. Game is a sell out. Just be a great atmosphere.

Front page story up. Some good insight from our Nebraska friends.

What a season!!! The Jays head to the College Cup after a 3-2 win over Duke. They will play Syracuse on Friday night at either 5pm or 7:30pmon ESPNU. What a run by Johnny and the boys!!!!!

Thought I’d start a new thread for this season.

Ok here’s the deal. I have two tickets for tomorrow against UND. They are free. You have to be 21 cuz you have to buy me a beer. Let me know if you want them

Wow another bad post season.

I love Booth and the job she has done. Maybe I see these top 15 rankings week after and I get lured in that we are that good. I hope this isn’t true. But the more this goes on the more it looks like we are the best team in a very average to below average conference. Maybe this is our ceiling.
