    'NOVA 69 : George Mason 68

    An ugly, ugly perfomance in a game the Cats didn't deserve to win. Clutch late 3s in the last seconds by Wayns and Armwood (both Freshman) were the difference.


    i heard that score on a radio update last night and i thought i heard it wrong....yowzers....when is their first tv game?

    3 PM EST today on ESPNU vs. Dayton

    listened to the last part of the game on the radio after work. despite blowing a big lead, i think another close win is good for this team. good for the young bucks to learn how to grind it out at the end.

    sucks that sunday's game is on at the same time as the birds. i have not had a chance to see them in action yet :thumbdown:

    MOUPHTAU YAROU might be out for the year with a viral infection. other than the fact that he is a big man who we need on the court, if this is true, i will miss out on a whole season of saying MOUPHTAU YAROU! :evil:

    'Cats grind out a great win at Louisville tonight...any road win in conference is tough to get no matter who you are...Louisville's press in the first half was nasty, but 'Nova showed them what defensive pressure is in the second half...Jay Wright typically makes the exact adjustments needed at halftime - that's why he's one of the best coaches in the country

    Scottie Reynolds (36 Pts) is just unbelievable...he will finish in the top 5 for the Wooden Award this year "Guaranteed"

    BTW - the "white out" is so lame and Pitino looks like a complete douche in that suit

    Also, 65 personal fouls in a game is just crazy

    Reggie Redding is smoking bud again! every time he was picking up his dribble, playing right into the trap.

    Reynolds and Fisher should have been the only players touching that basketball until it passed half court

    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.
