I remember when DePaul used to be a powerhouse. They haven't been the same since the old guy retired. (I forgot his name).
Yup, Ray Meyer. I always used to feel so bad for him when DePaul came up short in the tourney.
Central Michigan just won the first game at the Q.
Good luck to your Golden Flashes, Matt! :up
Good for DePaul.
This isn't good for Providence, however. PC needs at least two quality wins in the BE Tourney. Unfortunately for them, a win over DePaul will mean squat.

Good, they beat Pitt.
No just kidding, this is what makes BB good, a upset can always happen.
And to think that this wouldn't have been possible until this year. I guess the BE bosses must be thrilled that they got to include DePaul in this year's tourney. As for Cincinnati they shouldn't even be allowed into the NIT after a loss like that. These guys were considered a bubble team and in the span of a week they get blown out by South Florida, lose to Seton Hall and lose to 0-18 DePaul. If I were a cynic I'd be wondering what the betting action was on those 3 games.
Horizon League Championship Preview
Heading into this game, the Vikings have won 11 of their last 13 games, clearly one of the hottest teams in the Nation. They also have a signiture win over Syracuse this year. The Vikings one downfall all year has been not being able to get over the hump against conference leading Butler. In each of the two games they played this season, CSU lost by 2 points. If tonight's game lives up to the hype, the Horizon League Championship will be one for the ages!

This is one of those games that the bubble teams will be rooting like crazy for Butler. The Bulldogs are in the tourney regardless of the outcome.
Yep, I agree. And oddly enough, one of those bubble teams is the OSU Buckeyes. If CSU wins, OSU is most likely out. I'm still rooting for CSU. Having 2 Horizon League teams in the tourney would be great.
Well that's a dilemma. I'm sure Buckeye nation appreciates you throwing them under the bus.
