Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

Some gr8 action on Wednesday. Also some food suggestions:

#1 Nova -8 @ Temple (7 pm, espn2)
This is going to be a battle. Nova should win, but the game will not be a blowout. Cue the St. John's fans calling Nova an embarrassment for not winning by enough for their liking.
An upset would not surprise me here.
Make yourself a cheesesteak and enjoy

#23 PC @ #8 Xavier (7 Pm FS1)
Xavier is either going to be a top seed or not. These are the games they must win to stay in that 2 or 3 seed range (and even keep the 1 seed in play)
PC is either a top 25 team or they or not. For some reason they appear Teflon in the rankings. Not that I'm complaining. This is not a game they are expected to win, but it would do a lot for a PC team that appears to be struggling
A little skyline chili with some shredded sharp cheddar and onions. Throw it on your hot dog or mix it up and put it on pasta.

Seton Hall @ Georgetown (9 pm FS1)
Another gr8 game. Seton Hall might be able to lock up a tourney bid with a road win, but it won't be easy.
Georgetown looking to save some face, but I'm not sure a win on Wednesday will matter much.
Everyone knows DC does not have a signature dish

DePaul @ St. john's. (8 pm CBSSN)
St. John's best chance to avoid a winless season.
I would suggest heading over to Lazzara's for a Sicilian, but I assume the game is in Queens. Call your local Korean take out joint.

Go NOVA, PC, Seton Hall and I guess SJU?

DC has some of the best Ethiopian food in this country...

a Ethiopian restaurant on 5th ave in brooklyn that I loved. Ghenet. Place was amazing. A real fun dining experience.

Believe it or not, Omaha has a great Ethiopian restaurant as well. We don't do cheesesteak well, though. We don't make it on Wonder Bread, but it still lacks that certain something.

Go Nova! Need to keep temple on the other side of the bubble.

Really, Gottlieb on DePaul/St John's? Of all games.

I'm sure it's a location thing.

Their original location was in SoHo and it was great. It closed a while back. Didn't realize they had a Brooklyn location as well (just looked it up and confirmed it's the same). Might have to get out there.

I have also heard DC has fantastic Ethiopian.
