Sweet 16. VILLANOVA vs BAYLOR

[Savannah Jay]

The classic sports hedge...who i want to win vs. who i think will win. so a win-win, if you will.

This is why I don't fill out brackets anymore. I just watch the games and enjoy the shit-show. And drink...heavily.

Same. No bracket filling just a lot of cocktail mixing and remote control work (cause the boss said no to 3 TVs in same room). Go Jays n Cats. Cheers.

Jay had almost a week to prepare so gotta give Nova a fighting chance good luck!

I would think Villanova wants to slow down the pace of this game.

When considering personnel, coaching and recent history, this is the most exciting matchup of this tournament. The Bears are built eerily similar to the Nova championship teams, with their highly experienced stable of physical/athletic guards that just scorch the nets from 3. They seem to lack that elite BIG that Nova featured but their quality of depth is nothing short of spectacular.

I don't see Arch getting much run if things go down as I expect, so here is THE MOMENT for Antoine to break out in a big way. Is he 100% healthy and able to go full bore this week in practice? Any mention of discomfort with that shoulder? If all is good, with some significant practice time under his belt, he should be ready for this opportunity and be a game changer.

I don't see Baylor having any answer for JRE at either end of the court. If he doesn't get 20 and 10, I will be surprised, but Jay has got to hope he can get enough defensively out of Moore, Samuels and Daniels to not get blasted in the 1st half....especially Daniels. If Antoine, Swider and Slater can manage to not get exposed too badly, it's going to be one helluva ballgame!

Villanova by 2.

Go Nova!

May the gods of March Madness be with you.

Love the optimism, but man are things going to have to break Nova's way. But, that is why we play the game!! Go Cats!!!

Is James Robinson supposed to be a running joke? Kellog keeps calling him that and it's like nobody's even bothered to correct him for weeks.
