Not sure if this is good or bad, but former St. John's coach Mike Jarvis picked the Hoyas to win the tournament. He also predicted an all-Big East Final Four.

Not sure if I'm doing the link right, so here is the page:

Wait, derogatory toward D&D players? Or derogatory toward "Pomer-ite" statheads?

Edit: Did you mean actual D&D players as a joke or basketball players with great D&D stats? If it's the former, I just got it.

Yup, better late than never! ;D

Ohio sounds a lot like USF, actually. Not sure if that is a good thing or a bad thing.

Not at all. USF can't hit an outside at all, gets to the line a ton and doesn't force turnovers at all. They have an NBA-level talent at guard and some pretty decent size down low. They run a slower pace.

Ohio, like most mid-majors, has a set of shorter guards (Bassett didn't seem 6'2" on Indiana), they are better shooters, force some turnovers, don't rebound as well, and while they have better size than some mid-majors, there's not a ton of frontcourt talent.

Jason draws Bassett I assume? Remember that for everyone except Chris and Austin, this is their first tournament game (FSU didn't make the tourney Julian's year there did they?). Hope they can get over those early nerves and settle in and hit shots.

Based on what has been going on so far today this team better come out pumped and ready to play. They need to play the full 40 minutes to earn the victory because they will be getting all Ohio can throw at them.

[MEGAFAN]

It's one and done time, so every game should be (in the word's of AI) played like it's our last. While we have a VERY tough draw, if this team plays its game, very few teams can stop us. Let's get off to a good start and take it one game at a time.

LET'S GO HOYAS!!! OVERPOWER OHIO!

You can watch it on your computer. Just go to CBS.com and follow the steps. I'm doing it now.

[superan]

Too many turnovers at the start. Need to just settle down and buckle down on defense

[flyoverhoya]

Thanks.

[ceshoya]

Zone looks HORRIBLE!!!

[ksf42001]

How about we cover the guy who's statistically one of the better shooters in the country

[hoya95]

Well, this is going poorly. Ohio looks awfully comfortable.

[mrsixer123]

Austin's body language is horrible. Don't know if its Edited poor attitude or his sickness

[arsenalhoya]

Playing like . Need to have a good timeout here.

[PopeJohn2]

our defense is very bad. they are on pace to score 50! i mean really?! wtf?!

[superan]

Our zone has never worked. Ever.

[PopeJohn2]

so why do we play zone against a team that can shoot? someone please explain.

[jagtrader]

The zone is about avoiding foul trouble. Freeman picked up a silly second foul early. Very unlike him.
