Nova/Ucla

[Briancuse]

Heavyweight bout tonight. Why on earth is this being played at 1130 on a Friday night in early November?

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Because it's 8:30 in California?

Why on a Friday night in Nov? How about a sat afternoon in Dec after college football season ends.

 

[LPOrange]

Pac 10 used to play all their games Fridays and Sundays to minimize impact on student-athletes. But that was for conference games.

 

[grepal]

Still worth staying up for. It still might end before the 6 OT game did.

 

[CousCuse]

Brian's brother got all the bains in the family.

 

[skurey]

Just saw the preview for this game. More games need to be played late at night.

Agreed. The start time is ridiculous. If they wanted a late game why not start it at 10. That’s 7 Cali time. Even zags vs Texas tomorrow is late but at least it’s 10:30. That’s a bit more manageable

 

[cuseattle]

Great game! Especially for us west coasters. It's a reward for our 9:00 am football starts.
Really hope Cole lights Nova up in our game.

 

[City of Cuse]

This 2nd half has been high level ball. Like that the refs are letting them do their thing.

 

[FRANKIEFAN]

Nova is going to be a tough game.

 

[Vorony]

What a great early season game. Glad I stayed up for this.

 

[cuseattle]

Balencesto extra!
We've got overtime.

 

[sutomcat]

Nova ended up blowing a 10 point lead, got in foul trouble and lost in OT.

They play a seven man rotation. Almost no depth. But their big three is solid.

UCLA vs. Villanova score, takeaways: No. 2 Bruins make key plays late to win showdown vs. No. 4 Wildcats in OT

UCLA overcame a slow start to pull off a hard-fought overtime victory in an early season top-five battle

[HOFCeluck]

So UCLA is good actually

 

[pearl31]

Nova is going to be a tough game.

They don't have much size, height wise, but they're all built/strong, and experienced. They will be a difficult physical matchup for us, for sure.

And Gillespie is a pain. I hate his face…it’s so punchable!

I DVR'd both this game and the Texas-Gonzaga games and watched them next AM.

Line of the night was Jay Bilas saying about Walton's hair, "He looks like he invented the flex capacitor".

Texas not doubling Timme reminded me of Ohio State trying to guard Sampson 1 v 1 with Herb Williams. I think Sampson had 40+ that day.

Nova-UCLA was a really good game.

Is Timme the best player in the country? How does he match up with Buddy?

 

[Jake]

Timme is the best player I’ve seen so far. I missed the UCLA / Nova game. I want to see Juzang this year. He’s amazing.
