    seems like every season, no matter who's in the game, if the opposing team gets a run going, SU inbounds the ball, dribbles it out, and without even 5 seconds burning off the shot clock, they throw up a despiration 3 when they should be working the ball inside to chip away at the lead...not try to get it all back in one shot. they did the same thing against marquette saturday. and then with less than a minute left in the game and they're down by 7 or 9 or whatever it was, they're getting it inside, when it's absolutely not going to do any good for them. makes me so angry.

    jardine and jackson were quoted in the paper today saying that the team isn't dwelling on the 4 game losing streak, that they're just concentrating on UCONN......yeah, ok. ain't no way in hell that a 4 game skid isn't on every players mind.

    on another note...big ups to st. john's for beating the shit out of shitty duke. anytime duke loses, it puts a smile on my face.

    they're not penske material!


    i'm equally nervous/excited about this nova game tonight. love the fact that it's at the dupont as opposed to the wfc. they hardly ever lose at the dupont. but this marquette team is better than their record.


    nova's gotta go 2-1 at least prior to the pitt showdown next weekend..... :shifty:

    Dammit, UConn.

    Can't figure out this team. Per usual.

    They played like absolute shit tonight. They have no inside game at all. I don't even know what Okwandu and Oriakhi are doing when they're on the floor.

    pj hawks was right though....that was a BAD time to play syracuse.



    nova should have put this game away tonight. too close for comfort at the end. but nice to get back in the winning column.....

    CUSE IS BACK.

    these past couple of weeks on campus have been BRUTAL. glad that we can welcome the boys home tomorrow with smiles on our faces.
    Beavis: All my friends are brown and red? What does that mean?
    Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
    Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
    Butthead: Huh huh.

    went to the St. John's-Rutgers game last night. Good thing you didn't bet St. John's, which was favored by 9 1/2, which I felt was too high of a line.

    saw that game was at the fieldhouse, didn't think they played Big East games there anymore. What that a one time thing or do they still play a few there?

    They play usually three or four non-conference games there, plus some of the early non-conference schedule. They renovated it a few years ago to add the new scoreboard and seats with backs on them in the lower level.
