I was going to go as a SJU alum to see how competitive they were but based on what I saw against UCONN, I'm expecting an ambush of some sorts by the Wildcats.

no they didn't, they didn't even cover the 5-point line though I was stunned that Nova was not at least a 10-point favorite.

yeah that was a low line. maybe nova was expected to have a let down game after destroying rutgers by 26 the other night.
i thought st johns played real well in the first half. they just don't have the fire power to put together a full 40 minute effort against a very good team.
That's true, the article in the paper had Jay Wright being fearful of when the potential of St. John's shows up and he thought it was in the first half. Maybe years of losing will do that, but I just don't see it. Perhaps against some of the similar teams but not against the elite teams in the Big East.

Nova should be ranked #2 next week (maybe #1 :?: ) now that Kentucky has lost. Another good/impressive win against the Fighting Irish.
i was thinking the same thing, but that was ku's first loss and this was our only game of the week (no weekend game). i could see 1 and 2 flip flopping unless one of them loses another. but hey, if nova does get 2, I WILL TAKE IT!
let the st joes frauds make fun all they want. this team is really really good.
however, these last 10 games are going to be BRUTAL. if we go 7-3, i will be ecstatic. 6-4 might be realistic though. got gtown on the road, wvu twice, @ the cuse, and pittsburgh on the road among others. this stretch is really going to tell us a lot about this team..
Hey Jaegler - I'm no fraud. I'm still here even though my team sucks balls (I'm not a Cowboys loser). Just having a little fun with your dope smoking 2-guard (look at his eyes, he always looks high!!!). I think you guys got a great chance this year. I think Nova and Syracuse are the top 2 teams. To me Kansas looks a little bit like frauds. I see them getting upset before the final 4 - lots of depth but do they have that one stud to carry them in a big spot? Maybe Xavier Henry but hard to rely on a freshman. Not sure what has happened to Texas and Kentucky might be too young to win it all. I think Scottie has been the best player in tbe country so far - guy just flat out makes big plays when they need it.

best start in school history continues....
6-3 rest of way plus at least two wins in the big east tourney could very well net a 1 seed.....tough stretch coming up though.
at gtown saturday and at wvu 2 days later to kick it off. YIKES.
GO CATS!

I'm surprised that many HOYA fans made it to the game here in DC cause everyone should be snowed in like am.
