nova best team in the church league, told yall a month ago but no one wants to listen

Thought you would appear in on the Leprechaun Ts off thread.

Steven Ashworth just grabbed 12 boards. No excuses for bad rebounding anymore!

Butler almost pulled off a crazy comeback but Creighton wins a fun one

Have you guys won a game in the Big 12 yet or are you just content with collecting the media revenue while watching UConn win national championships?

The two biggest plays down the stretch in the Creighton game to me were the Ashworth 3 after a Butler turnover and Kalikbrenner's spin move on the baseline while being double teamed. As the announcer stated, you can't give up the baseline.

Also of note, Ashworth missed just his second FT of the season. And in the first half both teams had a combined 4 fouls until Butler started intentionally fouling with a minute left increasing by 3 or so.

Butler and almost in conference play, name a more dynamic duo.

Seton Hall -Providence in a good one at the AMP with 7 45 left pC up by 1

Oswin Erhunmwunse breakout game! After PC imploded and let Seton Hall take the lead, he dominated the paint defensively and threw down a monster alley oop during their game-winning run

12 points, 10 rebounds, 5 blocks

Shocked SH was capable of putting up 80+ points

He was ranked #32 in the nation as a recruit from Putnam Science Academy, right in UConn's backyard. Oswin will be a good one for PC.

The Johnnie’s and Nova are in a good one

 

[aceboon]

If Nova can't pull this out it will be because of these offensive rebounds they keep giving up

Just came here to post this. Extremely entertaining game

Shades of years 1&2 of the Hurley era at UConn

 

[aceboon]

Another offensive rebound given up by Nova, Luis is killing them

RJ Luis is getting every offensive rebound. Wooga took flight.

This is a great game.

 

[JustbrewitMan]

Wooga Poplar just did a drive and dunk that I’d like Solo Ball to watch 1,000 times and then realize he can do it too since he’s 2x more athletic.

 

[superjohn]

Dixon stunk this game.

 

[Hoophound]

The St. John’s team should be ranked. Aside from being good, you know they are very well coached.

 

[REB1094]

RJ Luis shot more FT tonight than UConn as a team did in 4 out of 6 BE games

 

[auror]

The St. John’s team should be ranked. Aside from being good, you know they are very well coached.

They're getting there. They just don't have any great wins. At Xavier is their best win from a resume perspective.

Gonna be tough to pick up big wins when the media and voters are humping the B1G and SEC.

St Johns shouldn't have blown that big lead vs Baylor and they had an opportunity to beat an SEC team and lost to Georgia

Big 10 will be exposed once again in the tournament.

 

[jibsey]

Guarding Luis will be tough.

 

[auror]

Guarding Luis will be tough.

Ross and Stewart line up with him pretty well. McNeeley might have some more trouble if he's back.

If McNeeley is healthy he's a significantly better defender than both of them.

Luis is quick so maybe Ross can stay with him better.

 

[Ctedgeman]

Nice to see freemantle playing. For some reason I thought the latest injury had him done for the season again.

Screw him

DePaul going toe-to-toe with Marquette. What does it all mean?
