A win today would mean our first semifinal since 2010 I believe.

Correct.

[WellsstreetWanderer]

Luke and JJJ need to play with maximum intensity.

Agree. Delgado is a beast under the birds. Fischer needs to play with energy and more Matt to muscle around for position

Prediction: Does Heldt or Fischy start today?

Will fox sports go have the Marquette game

I wonder if having Froling in practice will help.   If Wojo just told him to go to the boards with reckless abandon and that no foul would be called on him, I have to think that would help Matt and Luke.

I used to say that Jimmy Mac should do that for Wojo, but after seeing him in the alumni game with his bionic kneebraces, I changed my mind.

Of course     You could also just check it out as well.

Home floor not helping St John's.  Down 20 to Nova late first half.

Nova is so far ahead of St. John's. I'd be surprised if they don't win it all again this year.

Side note. I like lavin, but he needs to work on being less St. John biased.  Although I do understand why he is

[MerrittsMustache]

ZERO fouls on Nova in the first half. Only 6 called on the Johnnies. Keep it up. Let's get MU started on time!

[jsglow]

This happens every year. An 8 seed that played 12 hours ago has ZERO chance.  Mullin is cool. Nothing they can do today. Play with dignity.  Respect the tournament.

[RushmoreAcademy]

Nova.... not messing around.

[Herman Cain]

Will Lavin be commenting on our game?

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

Well...Nova came to play.

[bradley center bat]

Will Lavin be commenting on our game?

yes

[Herman Cain]

yes

That's a good thing

[tower912]

Nova doing this without Bridges.   Uh-oh.

Weird. Tons of St. John's last night. Even when the game was very early on, didn't hear too many in the building. I wonder who has the tickets today.

[muwarrior69]

Nova looks really good. They are hitting 3s just like we do only they can play defense.

[TAMU, Knower of Ball]

Nova to St. John's:

I think it tougher for the "western" schools to win the BET. It's practically a home court for the east coast schools. Since 2005 when we joined only Louisville won the BET (3X). West Virginia and Pitt are still pretty close to NYC as the other only non East Coast Teams to win.

Great win for Xavier tonight. Really helps our cause.
