Hopefully Nova's team comes in with your same attitude that it'll be a cake walk.


My prediction was withing a couple points of the spread that Vegas set, not me. Expecting Nova to cover buy 2 isn't a stretch. My prediction is indicative of how Nova has performed both against SHU (last win there was in the Clinton Administration) and against other conference teams. So there is some actual data to back up my best guess.

Your best guess is hoping that all stars align.? Got it.
Go Nova!

Sorry buddy, but the stars don't just align 3 years in a row. I'm not saying they'll win- that's much more likely in the return game, but I'm saying they're good enough to play with Nova.

Ok, "good enough to play with Nova on a neutral or home court is one thing...on the court where SHU struggles and Nova excels are two different things.

So let me ask you "buddy," why do you think the line is 15? And what point spread do you consider "good enough to play with Nova tonight?

Answer that and we'll sit back and see where the game ends up.

I probably would've put it closer to 10. I said i thought Nova would win but not cover. Maybe I'll be right, maybe I'll be wrong. I don't get why you're so offended by that.

Strong defensive first half for both teams- no easy points for anyone. The Hall shot themselves in the foot with a horrifically lazy rebounding effort and Nova's up 7 as a result.

Nova may have more O boards this half than they've had all season up till now.

offensive glass is where they need to excel if they are going to have any chance.

I'd be happy with just protecting the defensive glass at this point.
