    That's going to be a good game.

    Don't forget UConn/'Nova.

    man this is a real tough spot for nova today. i would imagine most of the team is gassed after the maryland comeback. cheek is out too.....
    Yep. My friend said a lot of students were lining up outside Gampel last night for the game.

    my liquid dinner at work starts at 4:30. got a few other guys to head out with me for the 2nd half. go cats!

    love Gus Johnson but see no point in the non-conference non-rivalry games once league play starts. i'd rather see West Virginia play someone in conference.

    I don't mind it if it's two major conference teams. I'd rather play Duke or UCLA in the middle of the year as opposed to St. Francis NY or Manhattan now.

    i agree if it's your team playing that game but as a neutral observer of a game like that it's much more interesting if it is a conference game after january (unless a rivarly game like Illinois-Missouri or someone like that).

    all i saw was the 2nd half and i couldn't quite concentrate as the place i was at was pretty loud. looks like stokes had a bad game. still a 2 point loss at uconn ain't all that bad. i was half expecting a 10 point-ish loss or so today. congrats.

    at syracuse on saturday. good god the big east is brutal! :mrgreen:

    The Big East is definitely brutal. UConn at Tennessee on Saturday. Going to be a tough game.

    Ahh well, not looking good. There are worse things than losing to #4 in the country on the road without your best player.

    And Joseph may play on Sat. This is clearly the best conference in the country with the Big 12 a distant 2nd.

    saw on the Nova message board that he had no tear in his meniscus and it's just swelling. I would think he would be back by saturday.

    didn't see much of the game yesterday so can't really comment but like you surprised at Stokes' line. He had been lights out this year.

    Pitt-Syracuse was a great game. Type of game to show someone what college hoops is all about. other than not going down to the wire. love the atmosphere, crazy on-campus fans, high level play, awesome high-def color, just great stuff.
