Unfortunately, game on a Monday night means it will be tough for Hoya Blue to do a road trip, as they did the last two years.
Still, nice exposure. Now just waiting for the rest of the Big East schedule to come out.

Doesn't it seem like the Big Monday games are always AT Syracuse, or AT Connecticut, or AT Louisville? Damn facilities! (And for you research nerds out there.....any fact-based responses that dispute my premise are not at all welcome. Just sayin'.)  |

(And for you research nerds out there.....any fact-based responses that dispute my premise are not at all welcome. Just sayin'.) No research involved, but I know as an out of town ticket holder that I look for a Sat-Mon homestand every year to maximize my travel time and last year's Marquette-Louisville weekend was a disaster I would prefer to forget. I also recall seeking an explanation for the Hoyas' disappointing play from Messrs. Bilas, Raftery, and McDonough at Clyde's following an early season Big Monday vs. Villanova in 2007. |

Just a personal feeling...but the Big Monday in Syracuse + Saturday afternoon in DC arrangement seems "right" to me for this rivalry.

John Thompson III: My name is John Thompson III and I'm putting together a special team, and I need me eight basketball players. Eight Georgetown soldiers. Now, y'all might've heard rumors about the Tournament happening soon. Well, we'll be leaving a little earlier. We're gonna be dropped into Syracuse, dressed as civilians. And once we're in enemy territory, as a bushwhackin' guerrilla army, we're gonna be doin' one thing and one thing only... killin' Orange. Now, I don't know about y'all, but I sure as hell didn't come down from the goddamn McDonough Gymnasium, cross three hundred seventy five miles of land, fight my way through half of New Jersey and jump out of a Editedin' Greyhound Bus to teach the Orange lessons in humanity. Orange ain't got no humanity. They're the foot soldiers of a ref-hatin', mass murderin' maniac and they need to be dee-stroyed. That's why any and every every son of a bitch we find wearin' an Orange uniform, they're gonna die. Now, I'm the direct descendant of the mountain man John Thompson Jr. That means I got a little ass-kicking defense in me. And our battle plan will be that of the Ewing resistance. We will be cruel to Syracuse, and through our cruelty they will know who we are. And they will find the evidence of our cruelty in the disemboweled, dismembered, and disfigured bodies of their brothers we leave behind us. And Syracuse won't not be able to help themselves but to imagine the cruelty their brothers endured at our hands, and our boot heels, and the edge of our knives. And Syracuse will be sickened by us, and Syracuse will talk about us, and Syracuse will fear us. And when Syracuse closes their eyes at night and they're tortured by their subconscious for the evil they have done, it will be with thoughts of us they are tortured with. Sound good?
The Hoyas: YES, SIR!
John Thompson III: That's what I like to hear. But I got a word of warning for all you would-be warriors. When you join my command, you take on debit. A debit you owe me personally. Each and every man under my command owes me one hundred Orange scalps. And I want my scalps. And all y'all will git me one hundred Orange scalps, taken from the heads of one hundred dead Orange. Or you will die tryin'.

The movie quote thing ended poorly last time. Let's just hope it was so premature that the basketball gods are not paying attention.

Moving back to the original point of the thread...playing @ Cuse and @ WVU on Monday will likely prevent me from going so I'll be happy to not be dying this season (between last season's game @ the Dome and the PE Jr. block at WVU, I've had some close calls).

From the article on seton hall on ESPN.
"Seton Hall, like every other Big East team, will release its schedule Thursday when the conference office unveils the league slate."
So i guess we'll find out the rest tomorrow

After what happened at the Dome last year, any Gtown fans that attend should wear helmets and take umbrellas.

Beating the orange scum on Monday and then taking it to those tools at Duke at home on Saturday might make that the best week of my life. Except for the week I lost my v-card that will always be numero uno
