Nova had to hold off Depaul, and Butler falls to St. John's.

Butler just could not score when they need to and TO at the end killed them.
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

And we will never know what might have been had Garrett made that last shot against Nova.

Everyone looks beatable at this point.

Especially us. As impressive as the Providence win was I can see us laying an egg against Gtown. Let's hope not. Go X!!!

Will be attending the DePaul-St. John's game on Sunday and we will see if the openers were aberrational performances for the Blue Demons and Red Storm. Methinks Villanova was sleeping and DePaul came tantalizingly close to catching lightning in a bottle.

Didn't St Johns beat the 'Cuse by 33? And DePaul lose to Chicago State or Chicago-Illinois or something like that?
