I know some clamored here for Moser, but I really don’t like what I see from Oklahoma. They play pretty much all senior transfers and don’t look like they have much young talent at all.

The shots aren't totally falling, but watching Nova attack the Cuse zone is a thing of beauty.

So wait ... The Greatest Coach in Basketball History just lost at home to The Worst Team In Big East Basketball History?

How 'bout that?!?!

But seriously ... nice win for the team many expect to bring up the rear in our league, and a pretty bad loss for one of the many teams we might be battling for one of the last NCAAT spots.

It's hard to know if Jordan actually wanted to foul up 3 in neither, either or both of those situations. The first time, at the end of regulation, his players never came close to fouling, but was it only because it was a transition situation (as the announcer said)? Unfortunately, a bad shooter made a lucky heave to send it into OT. The second time, after Jordan called a TO expressly to discuss the situation, it looked to me like a Butler player reached to foul the guy who missed the 3, and that it probably should have been 3 FTs. But it wasn't called, Butler grabbed the board, and it soon was over. Unless I simply saw it wrong, which is possible, as they never showed a good replay.

Except they can't score at all on the interior. You're going to hage days where shots don't fall. I believe they have only taken two free throws.

Nova is up 1 shooting 30% and 23% from distance .

Did Bilas just ask If it's "too late to call Jimmy Boeheim, Jimmy Buckets?" Please.

Very Nice wins by Providence, DePaul, and especially Butler.

Villanova coming on strong.
Very odd stat line in this one, the likes you don’t see too often.

Nova has attempted 15 more field goals and 30! more 3s than Syracuse.
Nova has 9 more boards, double the offensive boards, and 10 more assists in the game than Syracuse.

Despite being only 12/45 (26%) from 3 Villanova currently leads by 6 with 6 to play.

Hopefully when we play Nova, Slater will be 0-50 from distance. This should have been a blowout but it's still thoroughly enjoyable to watch Syracuse lose.

Nova's gonna be a bear for every team in the Big East to beat.

Nothing new there, of course.

Good night for the big east. Wonder how many teams from the ACC make the tournament? Yikes, that conference looks terrible this year.

I actually think UCONN has the roster to give them probs with Sanogo but it's impossible to bet against Nova.

Villanova wins going away.

Despite 13/50 from 3, 25%

Hard to lose any game where you attempt 21 more shots and 35 more 3s than the team you are facing.

+21 on the boards and a ton of offensive board thanks to that zone will do that.

Offensively, Villanova is super crisp with their passing, it’s impressive. I think it’s one aspect that Shaka needs to get MU better with so that the 3s can keep flying and fly a little more effectively.

As for this Syracuse team- I think this is another one that is going to be pretty good if healthy all season. Coach B only plays 5 guys but I like the parts they have- both the sons can play, the pg can play and swider/edwards can hold their own. As seems to be the case yearly, they really struggle early and seem to finish strong, likely due to the time it takes all the guys to gel and learn how to play the zone and obviously rebound effectively in it.

Butler’s Kenpom moved all the way up to 77 after their win over Oklahoma. Marquette is 76

I certainly think UConn has a chance to beat Nova. We'll see if they actually do.

Was very impressed with Nova's work on the boards vs. Cuse.

I'm not impressed with Syracuse at all.
