from the SJU beat writer at the NY Post:

Seton Hall-St. John's is off and will be ruled a forfeit for the time being, sources confirmed. Pirates would only have six healthy scholarship players. You need seven. #sjubb #shbb

first.

I hate SHU/Willard. The fans I sat by the first year in the Fiserv were absolute clowns too.

then you definitely don't want to go to the Prudential Center for a Seton Hall game!

Creighton takes Nova behind the woodshed.

Creighton played well, especially on D, but Nova played poorly. Lotsa 1-on-1 play and very bad shooting.

Nova has not looked like Nova this year.  Creighton has not looked like Creighton this year.  Not sure if I'm encouraged because even Creighton can beat Nova, or discouraged because prior to this Nova "has only lost to ranked teams".  Guess I'll call it a wash and look forward to some hopefully good hoops!

[PGsHeroes32]

Nova needs to start earning the ranking they keep getting this year

[MuggsyB]

Whoa.. ..Creighton by 20??

Crazy stuff.

[Herman Cain]

Creighton at home is a very tough team. With their offensive system they can get hot and put points on the board and if they play D like they did tonight they can win big .

Unfortunately they also  could turn around and lose to DePaul. That is just the nature of who they are .

They are a fun team to watch though

They looked abysmal against Arizona St.

Despite being pretty badly outplayed, Nova was within 2 with 7-8 minutes to go. Then several empty possessions, mostly on 1-on-1 moves and/or bad shots, and Creighton kept scoring inside and out. Just like that, it was up to 15-16 points.

This was a well-earned win by Creighton and a well-earned loss by Nova. It happens.

Does this mean the Big East is gonna be wide-open this season? We'll see!

I'm not sure about  "wide open" but I did say that UCONN and Xavier have more overall talent than Nova.  As far as Creighton is concerned I can't imagine Jay Wright is happy.  Let me just say this:  MU could make Blue Whale decibel noise with a win tomorrow followed by a win at home vs UCONN.

Boy, if I was a St. John's fan I would be pretty pissed. FS1 is still showing the FIFA game. The least they could do is show the game on FS2.

When this game was scheduled it was going to feature the Champagnie twins. Neither are playing in this game now.

St. John's better wake up.  Purdue is demolishing Butler.

Butler is terrible.  Send them back to the A-10

[MuggsyB]

LOL.  They can look really bad.  And I mean bad.

[zcg2013]

Pitt up 1 with a minute left. This could get ugly.

[Billy Hoyle]

LOL.  They can look really bad.  And I mean bad.

They are playing a legit national title contender short handed. It's not like they're playing Eastern Illinois or St Bonaventure.

This would be a monumental meltdown by St. J against a garbage Pitt team.

I'm not sure how losing a three point lead without your all-America star is a meltdown. That said, terrible D not picking up earlier on that last Pitt possession.

Losing to Pitt in general might be

[Uncle Rico]

Mike Anderson should be fired

I don't care if Champagnie is out. Short of the entire starting 5 being out with COVID and replaced by the pep band, losing to probably the worst P6 team at home is horrible.

Exactly.  They also missed about 6 free throws down the stretch.  Terrible loss.  Can't happen.  #Inexcusable

[MuggsyB]

It's never good when you lose to TCU at home.  Ewing's days are numbered.
