Villanova game burning!!
that game is over, be happy for just a few seconds. you never know when the next win is coming.
just feel like We should be 2-0 and that every game counts when seeding time comes around

We are where, at best, all of us expected we'd be.  I'll take it.

We have ND on wednesday at the garden where we have got the best of them lately. they played today, go on the road for a monday game, and then come to us. Could be tired..

Johnnies outscore Cincy 34-18 in the paint and finished +6 on the boards (40-34). This was a step, and a statement, about #stjbb's effort.

Great strategy by Lavin..... Hold the ball out and not get a shot off for 3 possessions and let them go on an 8-0 run. Terrible in game coach.

Oh for crying out loud - with D'los 4th, it was the right call. Just bad execution on the court.
Great win I stand by everything I said, this team is talented, with minor rotation and system adjustments along with the additions of Sanchez and branch ( consistently) we are a very dangerous team

Still waiting for sanchez?

Why didn't branch play?

Not true cr. Other ways to get around the 4th foul. Lavin gets tons of credit for getting these guys to toughen up. But that 10 point lead was built being aggressive. I have no problem with not pushing it for rushed shots, but you have to be aggressive in the half court.

Yes, but they involve a non-blind Branch, and a non-hip hobbled Greene...

 I didn't know that earlier. I assumed it had something to do with the lasik surgery.  My bad.  I don't listen to the commentators when I watch a game ever...unless it's Rafftery.

With this win, we have a great shot of getting two ranked teams early in season.  Our league can be unforgiving with the amount of ranked teams being played night in and night out but a few wins like today, it makes a lot of people forget about losing a few bad ones pre conference.  Its what makes the big east conference so special and a season by itself.

A win on road against a ranked team is like getting two gold stars as opposed to one if you beat one at home.  Goes a long long way in eyes of committee. 

Good win.  Happy for the team.

Great win that had my heart pounding.

The good.......

1.  rebounding came alive
2.  The kids played with intensity from start to finish
3.  Great defense.  The dopy announcers gave us little credit for our defense and kept saying that Cinci was having an off day.
4. While not a great offensive performance, was a great gut check game.
5.  Harrison taking over the game and taking the game winning shot

The not so good.....

1.  Green at the point at the end of the game made some poor decisions
2. Lavin going into the delay offense with 6 minutes to go almost cost us the game.  Cinci was playing poorly, yet we slowed down the game and put them back in it.

The lucky.......
1. Harrison's prayer from the bleechers, bailed out Lavins stall offense and basically won the game.
2. Cinci player's miss on a wide open foul line jump shot with 5 seconds to go

All in all a great gut check win.  Not the prettiest but it shows that these kids are capable of playing harder then they have been and rebounding  better then they have shown.
