NIT Virginia Game predictions

Game is Sunday at 11 am. Everyone remember our last 11 am game? I know Georgetown does..

Ill go out on a limb and say we play like we did against Seton hall. Get a big lead and nearly blow it in the end.

St johns 68
Virginia reel 64

I predict Virginia will hit 11 threes.

Virginia- 51
St. John's- 50

We will give it a good effort but our lack of perimeter shooting will come back to bite us.

We suck at defending 3's. I don't think we'll win this one. 72-63 UVA

St. John's 68
Virgina 60

Is Virginia any good?

You could say DePaul on the road was 11 am, at least locally (it was noon NYC time).

SJU is down 62-61 with 3.7 seconds to go.

Obekpa at the line for two shots.

First shot circles the inside of the rim and inexplicably pops out dropping off to the side.

Obekpa is sweating profusely and smiling nervously. He nods his head to Branch reassuring him he's ok.

The shot goes up and hits the back of the rim so hard that
it bounces 13 feet in the air.

Obekpa swoops in and thunderously slams the ball down into the basket in a windmill motion.

With 1.3 seconds left on the clock Virginia throws a pass the length of the court to a VA guard under the basket but Obekpa springs from out of nowhere and slams the ball into the stands as the VA guard stares at his empty hands.

The thirteen Johnny fans at the John Paul Jones Arena rush the court trampling the security guards.

SJU wins the game 63-62 but St. John's is disqualified from further participation in the NIT.

p.s. I know that you guys think that happy endings for St. John's are unrealistic.

You forgot to mention that Lipscombe gave Chris an amazing feed before he got fouled

If there's one thing we know about at St.John's, it's happy endings. Just ask Elijah, Grady & Abe.

Well the Lynchburg Chapter of Red Storm fans will have it's presence at the game ... all 3 of us.  I don't know where those other 10 fans are going to come from?

Virginia - 15
St John's -16

Shot clock breaks in the first half and nobody knows what to do and Lavin runs the weave for the rest of the game on the next possession

 St. John's- 65

 UVA-  58


 We are going to end up in the Garden again.

Virginia - 15
St John's -16

Shot clock breaks in the first half and nobody knows what to do and Lavin runs the weave for the rest of the game on the next possession

Ill take it!

SJU -  63
UVA - 60

Remember that Va. game in the N.I.T., played at CA, where they brought that mascot that bounced around the arena all game. Hey Va. fan do you still have that goofball mascot.
