Allot of people crying about Nova not having any fouls….. Champ and the entire team can’t shoot for crap ……Nova ripe for an upset if the Johnnies can hit some shots. Stanley one of the lone bright spots

The key is for Mike to leave early every game. When Posh is available we might win some.

 
 
Almost pulled off an absolute miracle.  Coburn couldnt buy a basket tonight unfortunately.

At this point, its get healthy and do what georgetown did last year in the tournament.
 
Can I just say that was nearly the greatest comeback I’ve ever seen?  I have no issue with coburn’s shot.  Wonderful effort without Champagnie and Posh 
 
I think if anyone said we would be down 3 with the ball and 35 secs left and no posh nor champ vs full nova team, we wuda taken that
 
Love the grit. Wheeler, my hat off to you. Coach Wright is like coach K in that they get every call yet cry as if the are not getting any whistles all game. Hope Posh heals up soon and Champ not too banged up
 
No consolation they played like crap for 32 ir more minutes I’m not faulting our players I try not too but CM/A as great of a guy he is should donate his check this week to meals on Wheels

Coburn got a great look.  It just wasnt his night.
 
The NCAA has not created a quad for moral victories.

Applaud the grit, but in the end it is just a loss this team cannot afford.
 
Game was a microcosm of an Anderson season here.

play like garbage for 80% of the game/Season.

turn it up at the end and fall short.

cut, print that’s a wrap.
 
Can't win when your team misses 17 layups in a game
Should have won this game, even without Posh and a limited Champ
Wheeler was great again - we really need him back next season
 
They gave us a thrill. I'm not usually one for moral victories but that was one with Posh out and Champ hurt and out for much of the game. Need to beat UCONN and steal one at Xavier to stay alive.

No moral victories in Year 3
Get out of here with that "no moral victories in Year 3" crap.  We were playing a top 20 team with one of the best coaches in the game. And we were missing our 2nd best player, and our best player was hurt most of the game. Given the circumstances, we did as well as we could have expected, and you should be very pleased with the game tonight.
 
I hit Nova -5.5 once Gillespie and Moore were in and Posh was out. What a crazy ending.

Classic SJU though to rally back from down 20 in the last 4 mins with Julian and Posh on the bench just to fall one shot short
