Good game DePaul. Second time I watched a DePaul game this week. Weird

Nice job DePaul! So far this season has been a lot like 2019-20 (COVID ended). That season DePaul did pretty well OOC and only one team did poorly (Providence... this year Georgetown). Any parallel to that season is a very good thing.

Johnnies didn't look great tonight, but we won by 10+ so I'll take it.

Instead they win by 18 and guarantee a top 15ish ranking come Monday, with potential to move into the top 2 or 3. In fact, if they beat Purdue (or UNC) tomorrow, they might deserve to be ahead of #2 UCLA since they lost in OT on the road.

People don't think this way so coaches don't like to schedule away games. Gonzaga will play 8 road games the entire season and pretty much has #1 seed locked down. Nova will play 14 away games but won't be rewarded for doing so. Scheduling UCLA was a dumb move.

*edit* I'm wouldn't call it dumb on most seasons, but Jay's angling for the #1 seed in the East region at Wells Fargo center this season. For this reason, Nova's only playing 3 WF games this season, giving up revenue in the process.
