Congratulations to:
• tashoya, whose prediction of Hoyas 67 - Johnnies 58, was a mere two points off the actual score of Hoyas 66 - Johnnies 59.
Honorable Mentions to:
• hoyatables, who correctly predicted that he would turn 32 on game day. Happy Birthday 'tables!
• PhillyHoya, Nevada Hoya, The Ambassador, Boz, and JohnnyJones whose predictions were only three points off the actual.
• michaelgrahamfan, who correctly predicted the score differential of seven.
• tjm62, whose prediction was 261 points off the actual. nice work there, tjm.
• Elvado, whose prediction of 41-9 was totally lost on me.
• idhoya for running the "triple option", none of which won. Whew.
• calhoya, whose Cubsfan-esque reverse-hope was fully vindicated.
• everyone who got dressed up for the game! Happy New Year, Hoyas.
Onto the DePaul Blue Demons this Sunday, January 3 at 2:00pmET in Chi-town. Don't forget to check out the gamewatch sub-board for info on gamewatches in your area.

I think Elvado was going for an historically famous run that the Hoyas put up at MSG in 1984 to put the Redmen in a bit of a hole.

261 points off last time, huh? Must be 'the system' stifling our players again.

Georgetown 76 DePaul 60 GO HOYAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Exorcize the demons!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Actually the 41-9 score was the halftime lead the Hoyas held against SJU in Ewing's conference opening game and freshman debut at MSG in January '82. The first half press the Hoyas threw at St. John's was beyond suffocating. Final was 72-42. Capitol City -- 64 Windy City -- 57 |
