27-8 early. Gillespie with 11. Hey, he’s pretty good...

Swider 3/3 from 3 with 11 as well. If we shoot like this we’ll be a tough out. B Antoine seeing first action of the year as well. We all of a sudden go 9 deep.

One man thread...lol... guess I’m the only one playing hookey from work today.

Nova puts 53 pts up in the first half. Swider, Gillespie And Moore go 11/17 from deep. When we share the ball like we did in this first half we’re at our best.

As an aside: LaFonso E. Picks SHU as one of his F4 teams.

Helluva a start Nova for what's going to be a very important five day stretch for the entire Big East.

It's great to see Swider starting to realize his immense potential (we recruited him hard, some believed we led at some point, but looking back, he was Nova bound once Wright offered). He's going to be a monster sooner rather than later.

Nice job Nova!

Not great competition, but Nova looked good today. When we decide to move the ball and make that extra pass good things happen. I am hoping that will continue throughout the season.

gtmoBlue is my boy! Creighton for life!

Good workman-like job Nova. All W's are good w's.

Hey Chesty...thanks.

I think I'm going Texas/Xavier parlay tonight.

Biggest OOC game of the year. If we can put together a complete 40 minutes and get by Texas we'll get a crack at Duke and the NET boost that comes with it win or lose.

Nothing in the first 4 games indicate we have a chance, but hope springs eternal.
