Too many good stretches out of this team to be getting blown out. Really need to find some reliability on offense. Villanova defense intensity has a lot to do with it. They are going to come out hard after this TO

Phiri at point is maddening. Agree but who? Our freshman very shaky I like Beaty rather than Phiri. You can do more things with him because he is comfortable with the basketball in the lane and around the basket. Saul is just a third point shooter and his passing is suspect.

You can't be picking up a T when you're trying to get back in the game. Damn.

akihm is going to be real good Only if he gets a shot. He needs to be able to finish and shoot to be a factor at this level. His handle and speed are there. Needs a couple more tools.

Croswell with another double double.
Surprising stat, to me at least, we have more assists than turnovers, while Nova has more turnovers than assists.

Nice of them to stick our cheerleaders into a corner, behind the stands, pretty much out of sight.

My goodness Saul is lost inside the three point arc.

Saul has killed us on three straight possessions.

This team has some sack, I will say that. We won't play a team of that level until Dayton and VCU. Time to get after cupcake city.

Love the way we fight! A better 2nd half for sure. Nova has the athletes. Like how we competed the 2nd half.

They played hard. That was nice to see. Hopefully they'll get fat on the next 5 games before Dayton and beat the A-10 teams rated below them.

Great effort in the second half. There are SO many good things to take away from this. We went down punching a national title contender in the face.
My favorite things to take away is how we caused TWO separate five second violations and almost got a few more against one of the most well-coached teams in the country. That's really impressive for any team to get -- let alone one where we had on the court a bunch of guys on the court in their seventh game in their college careers and a lot of sophomores.
That's really impressive. We're going to be good, if we're not already.

Lay off Saul...If i can recall he was the PG in our last 3 wins??? They PLAYED a good team with a excellent COACH who knows how to manipulate the Refs...We always lose to this team at the Free throw line..This team is really good and they will get better... Nova is rank in the top 25 for a reason...Keep beating the non top 25 teams!

The encouraging thing is that if you look at the 2nd half stats by themselves we pretty much outplayed them in every category other than FG% and even there we shot well. Nice effort and we beat the spread.

Great effort. Couple things about the game. Again, Croswell showed a ton of heart. Im giddy knowing he's a sophomore.
Hikim seems to have chemistry with Croswell and knows how to get him the ball when they pick and roll.
Spencer needs to shoot more.
I hate to attack our players but Beatty hurt us. We were making our run and he missed an easy layup. Followed by quick air ball out of inbound play. And then foul & technical.
All in all loved the fight in making it very competitive in 2nd half. And the stat about our turnover to assist compared with Nova is a good sign.
