NC Game Thread (Go Nova)

[GooooMarquette]

Booth has been clutch for Nova.

[brewcity77]

Really good game. If it stays close, I like Nova's free throw shooting at the end.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Can someone help me out. I swear Meeks has gotten four fouls in the second half. They keep saying he has three. Did one of his get assigned elsewhere?

Fr. Shanley, who baptized me, was a long time teacher at Villanova.  Rooting for Fr. Shanley's team.

Fr. Shanley was a also a chaplain in South Bend, mostly at Saint Mary's. He couldn't stand Digger.  Called Diggers teams...Diggers ....rhymes with Digger.  Picture an east coast, Irish priest, with a few too many Heiekens in your kitchen spouting off against ND. Classic.

So, do we get Homer and Mac on TruTv next year?

We're flying Thomas over from Denmark

Must have. I also had him at 4.

Nova up by three and I'm pulling for them about as hard as i do MU.

I'd say the same, but if this was MU we were watching, I'd have had a stroke by now.

Looks to me Nova will be at the top of the BE again next year, lose Arcidiacono and Ochefu but return Hart, Brunson, Jenkins, Bridges and Booth who looks like he's turning into a star this game, plus add a 5 star big man to replace Ochefu. Hart has to be favorite to win BE player of the year next season.

Also add 6'7" 260 lb Pascall who was frosh of year inA10.  He will be a soph.

They will be very, very good again. Hart is a star. He's probably a top 10 player in college this year.

You mean behind MU, right?

[Benny B]

I'm streaming (so a bit behind) but Nova seems unstoppable with momentum right now. (5:20 left)

[MUVander]

Of course behind us, also I said Hart is the favorite to win it but that doesn't mean he will, Markus Howard for BEPOY and NPOY.

Up 10 and Nova started milking the clock, two terrible possessions.  Need Jenkins back in and get back to normal pace. 

[PGsHeroes32]

Nova doing stall ball and it's killing momentum

[T-Bone]

Screw Jordan.

[NickelDimer]

Think they said he took the foul on that near tie up but it was on the guard (possibly Berry)

Two mins later and so much for that.

[Oldgym]

Phil Booth may have saved it. Clutch. So clutch.

[NickelDimer]

Jay Wright is doing an incredible job this tourney. I've never seen such a small lineup be so effective with interior D. Did the same to Perry Ellis

[Eldon]

Phil Booth may have saved it. Clutch. So clutch.

Duuude. Super Clutch.

[forgetful]

Two big missed FT's by UNC.

[forgetful]

Archi is a true floor general.  Really keeps everyone under control and manages the clock well.

Anyone else always almost forget the l in clock.  In can lead to some really awkward sentences.

[nyg]

Two big missed FT's by UNC.

Two by Jenkins and one by Hart may haunt Nova.  Jeez...

[PGsHeroes32]

Jenkins and hart with costly missed free throws
