Podcasts about big east

Is the Big 12 truly on the outside looking in? The common narrative says the new-look Big 12 Football Conference is a step above the Group of Five, but nowhere near the "P2" of the SEC and Big Ten... and that narrative is DEAD WRONG! On this episode of Couz's Corner, we're diving deep into the Big 12 vs SEC Big 10 debate to expose why the league is stronger and closer to elite status than you've been led to believe. I break down the true strength of the new-look Big 12. But that's not all! In the second segment, we take a trip back to the BCS Era to dissect one of the most misunderstood leagues in history: the Old Big East Football conference. After top programs like Virginia Tech and the Miami Hurricanes departed, was the Big East still a force? I explain why that late-era Big East was significantly underrated and why its legacy doesn't get appreciated. Which take is hotter? Drop your thoughts on the Big 12's status and the legacy of Big East Football in the comments!

Caught up with diehard Syracuse fan Kevin Connors and talked about some of his favorite Big East memories.

Indiana proved it can hang with legitimate competition as the Hoosiers knocked off Marquette 100-77 in Chicago, methodically building a lead behind Tucker DeVries' unconscious first-half shooting (24 points on 8-12, 5-7 from three) before Lamar Wilkerson took over in the second half to fend off every Marquette run. Despite significant foul trouble that had multiple starters sitting with three or four fouls, IU never let the lead dip below 10 points and played their walk-ons in the final minute of a neutral-site game against a Big East opponent—a sentence nobody expected to write in November.Andy, Ryan, Coach Tonsoni, and Coach Moats break down how this victory against Shaka Smart's pressure defense validated everything we saw in the early games, examining the adjustments that kept IU in control despite 25 team fouls, and celebrating a performance that moved Indiana to 21st in KenPom.Tucker DeVries' masterclass setting the tone with 24 first-half points, including the heads-up pass to Sicily after slow-playing Marquette into thinking he'd pull it outLamar Wilkerson's second-half takeover with 15 points and multiple dagger threes that stopped every Marquette run cold when DeVries sat with foul troubleTrent Sisley stepping up huge in extended minutes (30 total, 16 in second half) with 11 second-half points including the crucial crosscourt pass to Wilkerson for a momentum-killing threeThe offensive versatility: ghost screens, guard-to-guard ball screens, backdoor cuts off face-guarding, and constant counters to everything Shaka Smart threw at them27 assists on 33 made field goals with only eight turnovers against havoc pressure, plus the starting three guards combining for 21 assists and just three turnoversManaging foul trouble masterfully—playing guys with 3-4 fouls extended minutes, backing off ball pressure strategically, and only having one disqualificationSam Alexis and Jasai Miles eating critical bench minutes when foul trouble hit, with Alexis going for 13 and 5 in 26 minutes as a plus-34And much more.On the mics: Andy Bottoms, Ryan Phillips, Brian Tonsoni, and Bob MoatsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
