Have we ever clinched a Big 5 tie while being winless in IL play?

Yup, another huge shot.
A little sloppy with the ball in these final seconds, but great hustle by Washington and Silpe helps seal it.

With the rain and them not playing well, I didn't feel like going, so of course they win to spite me. I take full credit for this one.

Steve shakes things up, goes 10 deep, and the result is 29 bench points. The week of practice was clearly productive.

Congratulations. When was the last time Penn had a piece or better of the Big 5?

17 years ago. And that was outright.
Temple last won one outright in 96.

Really tremendous win tonight---few Penn fans so it was a potentially very hostile environment, but Penn took the crowd out early and other than one or two occasions where Temple cut it to 6, Penn simply made the shots when it had to. Great great ball movement--21 assists. In comparison, Temple took stupid shot after stupid shot.
It's the old story of Penn getting no respect. The Temple players thought they could come out and overwhelm us. Thus, they consistently overplayed on defense trying to steal the ball and eventually left a man open. On the other end, Temple players thought they could simply beat the defenders and ended up taking tough shots that missed. Great production from our deep bench. Particular kudos to Silpe, who seemed to hit killer shots when Penn was in trouble, Goodman, who had his best game since the skid began and Brodeur, who showed he has offensive moves that cannot be stopped.
Great great win. Now if we only make the Ivy playoff, this can still be a great year.

Not true; the Owls had perfect records in '58, '87, '88, and '10 (and for that matter, were the only 2-0 team twice during the unfortunate '90's.)

They were talking on the broadcast about the Goodman-Alston rivalry dating back to the Inter-Ac, where Dev’s Germantown team had the upper hand on Alston’s Haverford. Apparently that’s all he needed to raise his level back to what we saw earlier this season. Exactly what the Big 5 is all about.
Maybe Steve needs to tell him to pretend there’s another Inter-Ac guy on every Ivy team.

That was a tremendously contenting win. They really needed it for their confidence too. Even the misses in the first half were great looks. The ball movement was back, they hit clutch shots and made clutch passes to seal it. This was a really important win for the guys. Great job.
The best part for me was watching on mute. I can’t listen to that fraud Princeton and Mets fan McCarthy.

Well, I'm back from the Liacouras Center rewatching the game on the dvr. You'll want the sound on for Dev's steal and dunk at 6:32 of the first half. He lets out a power scream that echoes through the building. For any of you who didn't set the recorder for this classic (ugly at times, but classic nonetheless), maybe it will make its way onto Letsgoquakers.com .

What a pathetic fan base. Where’s that Temple poster who used to come here talking trash?
I still can’t get over the clutch 3s from kuba and Jake. Steve must have had a Kuba feel putting him in so early. He must feel great. Let’s hope Wang hitting a late one gets him going, because some of those misses were really off. Even Dave hit a huge one at the end.
Let’s get this next week and settle in for a very interesting league season.

There's a witty remark to be made regarding Temple experiencing a Kuban missile crisis, but I'm damned if I can find it.

Oof, tough talk from a fan base that can't put that many people in the stands unless you play us or Nova. Came over to congratulate you guys on the title and wish you luck for the outright, and I see trash talk about our fan base that, as usual, was nothing but gracious to the ten of you guys that made the 15 minute subway trip, even in a heartbreaking defeat.
But yea, good luck next week. This pathetic temple fan will be there supporting the quakers, like I was at the ivy tournament in march.
