Many of the St. Johns fans over at redmen.com are pretty down on their chances this season and dont expect many wins. However, a lot of them still feel pretty confident that they can beat us. What's the opinion about that on this board? If we don't beat St. Johns twice this season I will be very dissapointed. They are in an even worse situation than we are right now and I feel that we should handle them easily if we play the right way, and no, Im not Larry Brown ;D. My favorite quote: "I don't think this squad can beat any BE teams other Gtown, but I hope I'm wrong." redmen.com/modules.php?op=modload&name=phpBB2&file=viewtopic&topic_view=threads&p=178742&t=22627

I don't think it's a lock or anything, but you have to like our chances. They have one guy who stands out as a big east talent, and even he doesn't strike me as a "winning" player. Hill is a ball hog and he can't shoot to save his life. This isn't a Hatten who can carry the team on his back. We have at least a few BE athletes on the floor. Green is way better than any of their freshman.
Do I think they can beat us...sure. Anyone can beat us. But, put it this way, I like our odds of beating Nova better than I like SJU's odds of beating us.
That's a program that is seriously down on its luck. I was surprised to learn how awful Roberts track record at Queens college is. He's obviously a very charismatic salesman, it remains to be seen if he can coach. He certainly doesn't have much to coach this year, or next, for that matter.

We only beat them by 1 at home, playing one of our ugliest games of the year but winning 48-47 when their center can't make a free throw in the final seconds. Every member of the student section rabidly waves $1 bills behind the basket, causing the consecutive misses.
Then we shape up for a 10-point win at MSG. ;D

St. John's is like us, minus the talented part.
Hoyas 58, frustrated Johnnie's 38.

I think that we have some decent talent in Bowman, Cook, Green, and Hibbert if he can stay out of foul trouble. We are light years ahead of St. John's, and should be for the next few years due to their off the court troubles.

SJU might be up for this game, but I think we just outclass them talent-wise.
2 easy wins, with our young guys improving by that point.

We win both. Close at the Garden because we can't ever seem to shoot well there, but a blow out at home.
