Damn, this is gonna be a great game, tonight at 7:00 on ESPN.

Villanova's 4 guard starting lineup is not to be fucked with. There are going to be some serious mismatches on both ends of the court because Uconn is so much bigger.

Huskies by 7.

4 guard starting lineup. thats just asking for trouble on the defensive end

2/13/2006 2:09:29 PM

paging NyM410

2/13/2006 2:11:02 PM

^^ at some point...yes

tonight may be the night it finally bites them in the ass on a nationally televised level.

thier two losses were also against Big teams in Texas and West Virginia.

Winner of this game likely wins the Big East regular season title (if there were such a thing).

"Big game tonight. On the road in what will be fired up arena against a Top 4 team. This is the statement game that Gay will need to put him up there with the best. Somewhat quietly with Redick and Morrision taking the headlines (and deserverdly so), Gay has been one of the best players in the country the last month. If he continues don't be surprised to see him first team All-America when it's all said and done. Is Nardi going to play? If so, he and Lowry are too quick for Marcus Williams so Craig Austrie is going to have to play a large part on D. Maybe even Marcus Johnson will get some PT too. Should be a fun, high-scoring game. UConn 86 - Nova 81 [Edited on February 13, 2006 at 8:55 AM. Reason : this thread just reiterated how much of a douche socrates was] "

from the 'Calling all DukeUConn fans' thread

2/13/2006 2:21:32 PM

Uconn is a 3 pt favourite

2/13/2006 2:27:21 PM

it depends if nova can use thier quickness to get spacing againsts Uconns bigs

If they cant get open looks, Hilton, Boone and Gay will dominate

2/13/2006 7:02:30 PM

I heard NyM410 was quitting sports talk if UCONN doesnt cover

2/13/2006 7:03:30 PM

nardy off the pine tonight

2/13/2006 7:04:36 PM

why is uconn starting some freshmen over andersen?

2/13/2006 7:04:43 PM

shenanigans!

they play him 6th man like carney in memphis so he's instant offense off the bench, dell curry-style

2/13/2006 7:09:47 PM

announcers just brought it up, they weren't sure either

what about denham brown or do they just prefer two ball handling guards on the floor?

i just turned it to the game
is that bill raferty (sp?) calling the game, if so...he is my favorite

ps. fuck UCONvicts

2/13/2006 7:13:16 PM

hi gunzz....

Oh...and yeah, I hope the Huskies lose if for no reason other than piss off Bry-Ry and Woodfoot for telling me to fuck off the other day

2/13/2006 7:14:22 PM

seems to be a correlation between enlarged mammary glands and being subjective in sports talk

2/13/2006 7:17:33 PM

blah blah...

anyway... he just said 'powerful penetrator' and that made me laugh

2/13/2006 7:18:54 PM

hey girl
i hope they lose b/c i have never like them

2/13/2006 7:21:07 PM

i swear marcus williams looks like deron williams. are they related?

2/13/2006 7:22:06 PM

waaaaahhhhhhhhhh...

This is definitely a 6-pack game. Usually it's just a beer or two at the beginning before it's a blow out.. this might require even a bit more..

have fun and hate on!

2/13/2006 7:22:29 PM

williams is one of my fav players to watch in the nation

too bad he's a felon though

2/13/2006 7:26:14 PM

whoever has the whistle in the stands needs to be shot.

2/13/2006 7:37:06 PM

this is a GREAT game

2/13/2006 8:03:14 PM

Wow when Nova is on they are REAL GOOD.. of course I've been saying that all year.. I still think UConn wins this after this little run..

2/13/2006 8:31:23 PM

Shot too well tonight. Oh well..

Get 'em in 2 weeks @ home.. don't mind losing to another great Big East team..

2/13/2006 8:48:50 PM

what was that Bryan? LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE GONNA EAT A BAG O' DICKS TONIGHT.

see, God punishes...you never should have told me to fuck off and then you wouldn't have had this happen

2/13/2006 8:49:28 PM

You should probably worry about making the NCAA tourney there before talking shit, no?

haha.. nah I really don't mind losing to this team. They come to Storrs in 2 weeks and they are a Top 5 team. They shoot like they did in the second half and they are the best team in the country..

that being said, I'm gonna have to pour myself a glass of scotch real quick..

[Edited on February 13, 2006 at 8:53 PM. Reason : twas a great game in any event.]

2/13/2006 8:53:04 PM

I feel your pain NyM


Oh wait....

2/13/2006 8:54:50 PM

now awhile back i made the statement that Nova was teh best team in the nation...this just proves my point. When they play as a total unit, they can beat ANYONE

Foye is the Boy

2/13/2006 8:58:43 PM

ah. the Hey Song. "da da da da da...hey you suck." i feel a little nostalgic right now.

2/13/2006 9:01:12 PM

HAHA, should have shot that lay up

Kinda works for quite a few teams


Nova is tough, though.

Nardi is nasty... too bad we decided not to offer him. He had his bags packed for NC State

2/13/2006 9:02:00 PM

no way that kid knew he was that wide open

2/13/2006 9:02:14 PM

Uconn pulled a state!!

2/13/2006 9:02:33 PM

Williams got tackled, what kind of bullshit is that

2/13/2006 9:02:34 PM

you do NOT rush the court

2/13/2006 9:03:40 PM

^are you kidding, it was the first time they beat a number one in ten years

2/13/2006 9:04:14 PM

you rush the court, but that slow--please
^^^ you can clearly see on the replay that he ran into his own player and the nova guy punched the ball away before he williams got to it

[Edited on February 13, 2006 at 9:06 PM. Reason : ^^^^]

[Edited on February 13, 2006 at 9:06 PM. Reason : ^^^]

2/13/2006 9:05:03 PM

they are the #4 team in the country...nope no kidding here

2/13/2006 9:05:13 PM

you have to rush the court, number 1 team? first time ever at home. How could you not?

2/13/2006 9:05:27 PM

you rush the court when ur #4 and u just beat #1 for the number one spot in ur league as well as being the first #1 beat in 10 years...you def. rush.

2/13/2006 9:05:32 PM

Good for Villanova though.. they deserved it. I like them as a team but of course wanted them to lose this one

As I said Nova comes to UConn in 2 weeks.. it'll be different then. Then the rubber match in the Big East Championship game..

2/13/2006 9:05:45 PM

if that ball said "Dell" instead of "Spalding", Williams would have never dropped it...

bahahahahaha fuck UCONN-vict

I've never heard a stolen laptop joke before!!

2/13/2006 9:09:07 PM

Good game, and a great win for Nova.

On a side note, why does the ACC never just let them play like that?
