(5) Weekend Big East Games 3/2, 3/3/24

[Omaha1]

Glad that the Jays won for the seniors especially. Not having Kolek or Oso wasn’t great for Marquette, but the alternative lineup presented some challenges for CU also. Ashworth isn’t very athletic and in some ways, Kolek is a better matchup. Similarly, Gold living on the perimeter took Kalk away from the rim most of the day.

Certainly possible that we see a rubber match in NYC now that our teams are locked in as 2/3 or 3/2 seeds.

Would be interesting to see the results yesterday if the Jays were to have been without Kalkbrenner and Alexander?

Yeah, I guess?

CU has seen our share of season ending injuries. Nembhard broke his arm in Big East play. Kalkbrenner tore up his knee in the ncaa tournament a couple of years ago.

As stated in this thread, I was impressed with Marquette playing short handed.

don't think UConn is donating a win to Seton Hall today.
