Heard they might be booted out of the Big 5 in favor of Drexel. :P

cheek is awful. battling aaron bain (from the late 80s or so, you might be too young to remember him?) as the worst McDonald's All-American nova has recruited.

hawks have charlotte at home tomorrow. i know temple has dayton, not sure who lasalle has.

college hoops is awesome once league play starts. so many good games. good to see indiana playing well again.

I'm even more confident now that LaSalle would've beaten Nova and Pitt if they had Galloway.

i'm 43. i thought you might have been a bit younger like late 20s or so. i was in high school in '85 and played ball with a bunch of nova fans so my hatred was fully starting then. i always tell people i was born in the wrong era: no 3-point shot when i was in high school, girls had big hair and clothes usually covered every inch of their body and the music sucked. only good thing with being in hs in the 80s was alcohol and drugs were so much easier to come by

LaSalle has UMass(12-3) which just beat Fordham which just beat Harvard.

I always thought Drexel should be included in the Big 5 (or Big 6)

Pretty terrible loss for Temple yesterday. Typical to waste all the good will from beating Duke then blow it in the A-10 opener at home. Dayton played well and hit some big shots, but also was the recipient of strangely biased and terrible officiating (yea, sour grapes, but it was bad).

JK_Livin

LaSalle did their best to blow a 26pt half-time lead but they held on. I'll just keep enjoying the ride. Figures that one of the few times LaSalle is actually on tv, my son has a game. I guess if they keep winning maybe they'll get a couple more games on tv.

pjhawks

well the hawks had a terrible effort on saturday. players and coaches were in lala land. twice had players not move on missed foul shots giving charlotte easy rebounds and twice had charlotte steal the ball on routine in-bounds. charlotte didn't even play all that well either. just an awful loss for the hawks. get fordham at home wednesday then at umass saturday.

didn't see any of the other big 5 games this weekend although did stay up late saturday night to watch the stanford-oregon state 4 overtime game. crazy game that was.

JK_Livin

The Explorers are still rolling. Now come 2 tough games, @ Dayton and @ Temple.

they're more deserving than nova, who isn't even located in the city :roll:

Here's for our haters and our win tonight

Dook = mouth fart!


I'll say it while I have the chance, LaSalle is the only undefeated team in A-10 conference games :shock:

Hey, va fancul and scram. You're 0-1 vs. the Big 5 this year, so shove it.

Johnny Abruzzo

Owls pulled out a nice win at St. Louis last night. Wyatt had an insane stretch of 3-pointers (he actually threw one in almost from half court after Dunph finally called a timeout ). And Moore iced the game with a monster last 3 minutes. Road wins are always tough, and this was SLU's first home loss of the season.
