Well gents, the line is Louisville -10. I took it, i'm regretting it now.
Call me crazy but Nova could pull this out, right?
Absolutely they can. I think you made a safe bet. UL goes down tonight.
I hope Nova wins for our sake. I'd rather face them than UL.

A thousand times yes.

Not if the turnovers continue. NOVA has 10 turnovers in seven minutes.
Wow, 6 minutes in and Nova turns it over 9 TIMES!
And just to clarify, i took Louisville -9.5. People were calling me crazy for that bet. I'd happily lose though if Villanova wins!

Wait, wait, wait. Despite Villinova beating Georgetown, Louisville, and Syracuse on their home court, Marquette's loss at Villinova was an absolutely awful, horrendous, inexplicable, embarrassing, season-altering loss, and now you are predicting that they beat Louisville (the hottest team in the Big East) on a neutral site after having played last night?
You might want to get your meds checked.
Oh wait, the law of averages means that Louisville must lose tonight, completely an acceptable and expected loss to Villinova on a neutral court, but again, Marquette crapped their pants by losing at Villinova. The law of averages also says that, due to going into the NCAA Tournament following a loss (because so few teams do that...), that Louisville will then go on a 6 game winning streak and win the National Championship, because they'd be due for a winning strea.

They brought up Pitino's constant fouling because they can't call everything. I hate it.

So MU is giving Louisville a test run tonight? I hope this doesn't mean Villanova shows up to play Notre Dame.

Lay the F off me, tool. Ok Einstein, if the law if averages isn't real as you say...Explain a 16-0 conference team in Norfolk State last night losing in the Quarterfinals of the MEAC tournament last night to a Bethune-Cookman team that was 7-9 in conference?? By the way, that IS law of averages, but ask Norfolk fans if they see that loss as unacceptable?? I guarandamntee you they do. It cost them a tourney bid, just as MU's unacceptable loss @ Nova cost them an outright BE title.
And yes, Nova will win this game.

That really escalated quickly.

It's a cheap ass way to play defensive, but whatever.
Letting the game be a foulfest sucks for the fans. These are tough games to watch. Hack Central.
18 Turnovers, thats how you roll when a freshman runs the show. Louisville is a butcher shop

That means he took LOU and gave the points.

Oh, well admittedly, I'm not a gambler, so i don't understand how it works all the time. I thought it meant he took Nova to cover.
I sure hope Louisville is blowing their load tonight. I don't relish playing them at all. Assuming we get past the Irish.

IF we play Louisville we really need to come up with something new against their trapping and press. The same old-same old is not going to get it done.
A lot of open shots from the perimeter occur with this press/trap. Maybe 2-3 minutes per half for Jake Thomas? Also need a lot of Wilson versus Anderson to break it.
This game is never going to end.

No kidding. So much stoppage of play.
Also, doesn't MSG seem quiet?

Hard for the crowd to get into it when there is a stoppage every 20 seconds.
Anyone watching the end of the game hear "we are marquette" chants. Or was that just me hearing things?
