Week of 1/29 Other games

[connVA]

They've got some dumb players, too.

I don’t like Houston but Sampson always has heady players and they took full advantage of Texas choking at the end of H2 and in OT. The last 3 minutes of Duke-Clemson was another example of smart vs dumb basketball (about the only nice thing I’ll say about Duke BB players). Everyone knows refs steal games at Cameron so take care of the damn ball so it’s not close enough to do it.

Villanova looks absolutely lost attacking this Marquette D.

Marquette playing zone. Nova not good anyway

 

[Karmacop]

Nova looks like absolute garbage. Why don’t they play like this against UConn?

 

[UConnSwag11]

I can’t stand Kolek

 

[JustbrewitMan]

If Nova goes into an absolute free fall over the next few games, is firing Neptune during the season on the table?

(Probably not, but could be possible)

 

[Kemba'sYogurt]

Villanova is dead

If you read Villanova 's SB Nation page you will see those fans have had it with Neptune. If NIL money stops coming in unless he is fired, well Neptune is as good as gone.

 

[auror]

Feel like Jay Wright is going to make a call at halftime.

 

[REB1094]

After 13 minutes:
Villanova 13
Tyler Kolek 13

Nova knows the double is coming, but never has any guys for support. Nobody cutting. That's poor coaching.

Dixon getting swallowed up each time

 

[gsmooth]

Marquette is a staggering 1.53 PPP so far. And this is without Kam Jones. Nova cannot get ball to Dixon when he is posting up a guard. On the rare occasions he does get the ball he gets swarmed like a honeycomb by a beehive and can't pass it out.

need UNC to start dropping some conference games to create some breathing room at the top of the 1 seed line, ACC gotta step up

Shaka is coaching circles around Neptune. Shaka is playing chess and Neptune is playing checkers

Unfortunately they are not dropping any league games this year . AAC is a trash basketball league and will get even worse next year with more dregs joining

 

[brihman]

UNC is so good.

 

[prankster]

Nova's pulled it under 10.

 

[Bomber36]

Strong finish to the half by Nova.

 

[aceboon]

Good job by Nova getting themselves back into it, 8 pt halftime deficit is manageable

 

[gsmooth]

Finally Nova is showing some fight. Nice finiah to get them to 8. Against UConn they came back almost immediately after falling down 11-0

 

[auror]

Nova didn't really get better shots. Just made contested 3s.

 

[BigErnMcCracken]

I have no idea if they'll win because BC stinks too but Syracuse's offense is absolutely brutal to watch. One guy pounding the ball and 4 guys watching him. And they don't play hard. I love it.

 

[Bomber36]

Nova came out hot. 1 point game.
