slu72 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Does this season mark the first time we've ever swept X? This would include the old MCC days when they always seemed to have their way with us even when we had Bonner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slubilliken09 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 No, we did in 06. http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/team/schedule/_/id/139/year/2006/saint-louis-billikens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taj79 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I want to say we have never beaten X twice in a season to my recollection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taj79 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 I stand corrected. We also actually swept them in 90-91 but then lost in the finals of the MCC to them in Dayton, which was our last year in the MCC, we moved to the Great Midwest the following year. The year noted above by 09 was our fiurst year in the A10 whereby we then went to Cincinnati and got slammed by St. Joe's in the game foillowing our top four bye path into the tourney 56 to 37.

We were absolutely a no show for that game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SShoe Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 That had to be ugliest game I ever saw. We were absolutely a no show for that game.While I agree that we were a no-show, I went to that game and vividly remember the officials allowing St. Joe's to completely take control of the game with their over-the-top physicality similar to the way SIU used to play. On offense, our guards were being mugged every trip down, while on defense, the St. Joe guards pushed off on just about every play. A differently called game could have dramatically changed the way that game went. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
