74-60 with 30 seconds left. Did not expect that outcome, especially with the game at NOVA.
ST. Joe’s kickin’ NOVA butt…
- Thread starter Hall-O-Daze
- Start date
Main liners down this way in NORF delco fuming. I love it. Jokes
Tre shabby for nova.. come on.
Merrimack beating gu. At least one catholic school in the BE won tonight lol
Watched Battle of Atlantis and Nova looked awesome --talk about Jeckyll and Hyde. Guess Neptune will have "wolves at the door" again
How does a team with 4 consecutive quality wins lose to SJU?
Georgetown barely survived Merrimack.
UNC looks like they may fall tonight to a lesser team.

St. Joe's isn't the Little Sisters of the Poor.
Nova isn’t Nova anymore. Very few let down games with Jay Wright over the last 10 years or so of his tenure. A lot of talent on that Nova team, but just not the same discipline from what I’ve seen since Neptune took over. People wonder why Wright only went 7 or 8 players deep in his rotations; his way or you don’t play.
Saint Joseph's 78-65 Villanova (Nov 29, 2023) Box Score - ESPN
Box score for the Saint Joseph's Hawks vs. Villanova Wildcats NCAAM game from November 29, 2023 on ESPN. Includes all points, rebounds and steals stats.
They lost because they shot 27% from 3 point land. Sound familiar? You don't make 3 pointers you generally lose. They took 37 and made only 10. St Joes was 14 for 27. So St Joes was hot or Villanova was not defending the 3 very well. Sound familiar?
A lot of the same gripes I see on this forum are probably being said over on the Villanova board.

St.Joe’s showed up ready for a rock fight and out hustled Nova all night. They have a pretty good team. But this win was about desire. They punched Nova in the face and Nova never matched their intensity.
Nova losing to St. Joe’s didn’t surprise me but losing by 13 did. I think we’ll see more upsets this season and nothing should surprise us .
St. Joes is a good team. Have very good guards including Eric Reynolds who can score from anywhere. The SJU guards outplayed Novas backcourt. Had Kentucky beat two weeks ago only to lose in OT.

You saved me the post. St. Joe's isn't bad at all, and they came loaded for bear last night.
Villanova has to learn how to respect all their opponents, because they're very good, but not good enough to just show up against a solid intra-city rival and just expect an automatic win.
