    Both squads in some throwback uniforms too, hopefully our guys can play a good clean, mistake free game. Agree with Paul's assessment, keep the turnovers down and we definitely could win this thing. Keep giving me irrational hope guys, I love it.

    I like your style.

    Please allow me to add one thought: may the God's throw a wet blanket on Nova's ability to hit from behind the arc tomorrow. May they remember what Nova seemingly did to us last year from there, and simply say "you shottith your waddith last year, you shall clankith against the rim in the Queen City this year."

    Sorry, but I'm not up on my pagan God-speak. Let's go with something like that.

    Vegas says Nova by 5.5. We can handle that.

    I’ve noticed you’ve been absent from class for a while, but I think that was passable, considering....

    Gillespie must not be allowed to do what he did in Philly. His 6 of 10 from deep was the difference. He's cold of late (8 of 34). Got to be able to fight through those ball screens and hurry his shot. No reason a 6' non athletic, one dimensional guy should be able to burn us again.

    I feel good about tomorrow.

    Bad thing is I have been optimistic every time we play Nova and we always get crushed. Steele has been winning places though that
    Mack struggled to so let’s continue that trend!
