My favorite match-up of the night:
Nova is playing a tough Alabama team after playing a late night OT game on thursday.

Player to watch:
Nova: Sophomore Darrun Hilliard- Led team with career high 22 (on 7-10 shooting) against Purdue. Avgeraging 14 pts/gm & shooting 65% FG & 57% 3FG on the season.


I predict 5-2 on the night.

[FINAL]

The BE was 4-3 on the night.

Wins:

#23 Uconn 77-71 over Wack Forest
Rutgers 58-52 over The Princeton basketball club
USF 78-59 over a tomato can
ND beat St. Joe's

L's:

SJU lost 72-67 to Murray St. (Someone needs to check the refs' bank accounts for recent, large deposits)
Providence lost 55-52 in OT to The Penn St. boys club
Nova lost 77-55 to Alabama (After great game yesterday, what a butthurt for Jay Wright)

The 'Nova-Bama game could give us an early indication of how good both teams are, plus maybe a little about Memphis. We played Bama in a closed scrimmage, and rolled them pretty good, before backing off late and winning by something between 10 and 18.

I'm not surprised, Bama's had some highly rated recruits over the past couple of seasons that seem to not have "arrived" yet. That doesn't apply to Trevor Lacey though, he's the truth.

St. John's controlling Murray St. and hopefully they can hold on and face Colorado Sunday night and win this tourny.

St. Johns leading Murray State 21-12. St. Johns has some freakish players athletically. Will be interesting if they can put everything together.

I don't know what people were thinking voting them to finish last in the league. This is a legit team with realistic aspirations of an NCAA birth.

These refs are horrible. They just let Murray St right back into this game with 3 bad calls in the last 90 seconds. Wow.

Johnnies with a 3-point lead at the half 35 to 32. SJU held the racers to 33% shooting from the field.
