Georgetown and Hall win.

18-1.
 
Lafayette is hanging around with St Johns at halftime, only down 2 on the road

Lafayette is hitting some tough shots, but SJU has had literally nobody able to create a shot other than David Jones. The offense is pretty painful to watch on both sides
 
Upsets are nothing unusual in college basketball most are early only because that’s when the majority of alleged mismatches are played.
Would you say the ACC is in trouble because Louisville lost to a small Jesuit , Louisville school ? I’m not writing them off just yet.
That was much more embarrassing loss than losing to Temple a historic big 5 rival with years of matchups against each other.
Besides Comparative scores are meaningless. How much money would you wager on Wagner vs Nova getting 10 or less points .
I suspect not much.
I didn’t pick Nova in my preseason top three but , I suspect when it’s over they will be fighting for one of those spots If someone slips up.
 
It's early but I agree that Nova may start wanting to hit the panic button. Lots of talent on that roster but you can't discount the type of stabilizing factor and in game coach Jay was.

Monday games:

Delaware State @ Villanova
DePaul @ Minnesota
Butler @ Penn State
Holy Cross @ Creighton
 
I don't think Nova is very good this year, and there is no guarantee that Justin Moore will even come back for them.
 
Nova wins 60-50. They scored 20+ of those pts from the FT line though.
 
.-.
21-1.

Nova wins in very unconvincing fashion.

Footnote. Texas was without their best player, their starting point guard, who also happens to be one of the best players in the country. Still a very good win though.

Butler getting blasted by Penn State early. Down 11 after 8 minutes. Still plenty of time
 
I will be using parentheses to indicate record against P5 going forward.

The annual tradition of Depaul dominating the non-conf and losing every Big East game is great for the league's metrics and tournament seeding.

They are a perfect cellar-dweller for the league.
 
1-0 start against the B1G in the Gavitt games. Need Butler to show up tonight.

Footnote #3. Texas's best player will probably only be out a few games so she'll be back for most of the season. UConn's is missing the entire season.
 
Florida State is losing by 7 at half to Troy. FSU could start 0-3.
 
If ya never saw your team go 0-16 in the first half, I don’t recommend it.

Hausen and Armstrong came in the second half and may have signaled the start of the end of the chris Arcidiocono thing. Del state just hacked dudes as they came inside. It didn’t work because nova hit almost all of em. But, it wasn’t a terrible plan.
 
TCU just lost to Northwestern State. TCU is possibly the most overrated squad in the country. Could easily be 0-3 against low majors right now.
