Because if the Hoyas win, the Ewing/Thompson haters will just say, you were supposed to beat a horrible DePaul team that was also missing Liberty which makes DePaul 100x as horrible. And you still barely beat them by 25 points and still didn't play Berger. So winning isn't really a victory for the Ewing/Thompson lovers. But if the DePaul wins then it's a Super Bowl victory for the Ewing/Thompson Haters Club because they will be able to point to this game all off-season as a reason to get rid of Ewing. This is basically their last chance (barring meeting DePaul in the BET) because as much as they would like to, a loss to UCONN isn't a bad loss (since they are an NCAA tournament caliber team with Bouknight. IMO they will likely get to the 2nd weekend if they make the tournament.) and a loss to Xavier wouldn't be a bad loss. So this is it, Custard's Last Stand for them. The Magnitude of this game is huge for their cause. LOL! You can’t possibly believe this... It's simplicity itself. You would essentially have to have a significant flameout at the end of this year to justify removing Ewing before next year as the Ewing/Thompson Haters Club want. They need this DePaul loss in a big way.

I, personally, am giving custard many more chances.
Its work in pies alone is legendary.

They need this DePaul loss in a big way. There is no way Ewing is going anywhere. You bringing up how bad DePaul is and acknowledging they are missing their best player shows you think it would be a bad loss. If Freeman-Liberty was playing I think it’s a toss up. Today we should win.

-3 now. Not really sure we deserve to be that big a road favorite against any P6 team. Moved to -3.5 at tip. Let’s hope the bettors are right.

Both teams are missing their best player. Back to a toss up. I do expect Carey to fill in nicely for Blair.

Maybe but Kobe is a F so getting him minutes to replace a guard will be harder.

Why can’t we score to start either half?

Jahvon would have had at least 2 open 3s already
