Rutgers did the Hoyas a favor by playing Jay Wright Grab Ball tonight.

Nova students will be out of town for the game according to Nova's Rivals Message Board. So that's in our favor. And even though this is their last home game they already had their senior day event since students will be away and this game is at Wachovia.

I'm assuming they'll have Pinkston match up with Otto. Otto should win that one. For the first time in awhile, they have competent bigs. Need to rebound and box out better than we did against Rutgers.

Their freshman PG is a turnover machine. I'd like to see a little pressure with Jabril or Starks, just to see if we can't get a few easy buckets in transition. They're a particularly streaky 3 point shooting team so knowing our luck, they'll be on fire against us. Regardless I gather we'll probably throw some zone at them, make them execute in the half court.

Villanova will be playing hungry, and of course they have shown that they can be very tough against very good competition.
I have watched a lot of villanova games this year, and they don't shoot the ball well and turn the ball over like crazy. Hopefully our defense really proves too much for them.

Tickets for Wednesday's game are extremely reasonable on Stubhub and the like. It's going to be very tempting to dart up there on Amtrak after work.

But let Pitt come back and win. Wildly inconsistent. While they've beaten the top teams in the conference, they've also lost to SHU. Wildly inconsistent.

And lost to Providence twice (and that's just Big East play; there's also the bad loss to Columbia, and the increasingly suspect losses to La Salle and 'Bama). As a BE team going forward, we want Nova to be a successful program and to make the tournament, but that doesn't mean we need to do them any favors here. Take care of business on the road Wednesday, then 2 days of watching Die Hard in the run-up to Saturday. Actually I'm gonna go get started on that second part now. |

This is our last-stand game. This is where we make the case that we definitely deserves the #1 in the tournament. This game makes me especially nervous. Otto will have received so much attention from media types and everyone in between, he will need some help. Hopefully, Markel and DSR can step it up.
