The road is tough. Regroup for Cuse.

The basketball IQ on this team is terribly low.

What a selfish shot by Cadougan at the end there. Why take the layup ?

[warriorstrack]

Buzz should really look at starting line-up, might help

I hope your kidding.

MU had 18 turnovers, NOVA had 10.  The ball game.

Question now is will they continue poor play and win again.  Cuse, ND, then Rutgers and St. Johns on the road.

I am comfortable with Rutgers, only reason they lost their leading scorer, but the others not at this point.  

This one hurt bigtime.

Oh dear! are we to assume you are a genius at basketball?

Shocking loss! Yeah, right.

This one was written way before the tip. Nova needs a win for NCAA, playing in their high school gym (never won here), senior night. Anyone should have seen this was a probable loss, but winnable against this average Nova team. Press this team, play zone against them, guard the 3 and you probably beat this MU team when they're on the road.

Seems like Buzz was trying to force S. Taylor in the rotation too much tonight. Freshman got schooled by a Senior on several plays. Good learning experience for Steve.

Homer and Mac giving accolades to Junior and Steve?! Yeah, nice rebounding by Taylor, but defense suspect. Junior?! Good final 2 mins, that's about it.

I'm not. Your down 6. Take a three. What does 2 get you? He wanted to pad his stats.

[forgetful]

I'm not. Your down 6. Take a three. What does 2 get you? He wanted to pad his stats. This team would be really good with a semi decent pg. I regret that I backed him up a week ago when people wanted blue as point guard. I can't wait till he's gone. I don't care Duane or Derrick is worse. I can't wait to never have to see that smug look on his face again after a stupid play.

You always take the easy points.  If you can get a sure layup with only 2 sec off the clock you take it.  You don't throw the ball around for the entire time hoping to get a good 3.  He did exactly what a pg was suppose to do, go to the hope and get quick points.

Junior had a bad game.  The press got to the team.  The players as a whole have no idea where to go to relieve pressure.  That forces bad plays and more TO's for the pg.

This board is unbearable. Villanova beat Syracuse and Louisville at home this season. They were favored. Marquette is still tied for second in the Big East with a chance (a very good one) to beat Syracuse on Monday. How is this a bad loss? How does this loss make you guys lose faith in this team?...This forum sucks.

[AirPunches]

Agree. Not worth arguing about that play. It was over anyway.

True 'dat! Lots of BEast regular season bball left this year. Not a bad loss, but this Nova team is going nowhere even if they get in the Tournament. They'd do well in the NIT if they keep the games at that gym.

[Newsdreams]

Well the writting is on the wall stop Vander Blue beat MU,

C'mon! Look at his name. He's the Monkey Man!

That is nasty

[TinyTimsLittleBrother]

A chance to win the BE title, and this is how you play?? Well done MU well done. Now they will lose to Cuse Monday, and that will be that. Once again, a chance to be "special" and fail to get it done. I'm tired of it.

Go from potential BE title, to almost out of a top 4 seed. Only MU, only MU. 

Honestly, if it upsets you this much, perhaps you need to get a better perspective.
