Cincy Beatdown

I'm going to go out on a limb with 2:40 to go in the game & a 23 point lead, GU will complete the utter domination of a rather thuggish looking Bearcat team.

I'm assuming that Diamond & IPB were at the game. Was the student crowd sizeable? I was surprised tha the crowd didn't go ballistic with the coffin nailing Green dunk w/ a little over 3 mintues to go. Overall it seemed like we put a solid 40 minutes of ball together with relatively little problems. With this win and a the victory of ND, we should be a top 20 team in both polls come next week.

Based on the last 2 performances at home, it'd be great if the student body made MCI a home court feared by other Big East teams.

By the way, during a TV timeout, they showed Jack pulverizing a Cincinatti t-shirt.

A good old-fashioned ass-pounding. We look VERY good at this point in the season. Hopefully, we can keep it up. Although we were sitting pretty at this point last year too, we never looked this good. The team is playing with more confidence and you can see that the Princetown has really taken hold. Let's take down DePaul!

Oh, and the crowd was 12,000. Students were in full force. Good atmosphere.

From the Post:

"A win at DePaul (8-10, 1-6) on Tuesday would give the Hoyas their best conference start since the 1995-96 season, when they won seven of their first eight games en route to a 13-5 Big East record."

Wow. That's incredible.
