Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

No. 1 seed Villanova opened as a 6.5-point favorite over No. 3 seed Michigan in Monday's national championship game.

The Wildcats are the largest favorites in the championship game since Duke was favored by seven over Butler in 2010. Villanova has been favored in every game this season.

By Sunday morning, the line had grown to as high as Villanova -7.5 at some books.

Hope everyone has a great Easter today and we enjoy another celebration tomorrow.

Second time in 3 years that Nova is in the championship game, congrats.

Every B.E. team wants to be where nova is at, we gotta stop bitching out and get better in the ncaa tourny.

Hopefully Chris gets the REDMEN there next year, but I'm hesitant to say they will.
Matt getting another 2 sit out transfers? What a f'ing joke.
Oh well.

Well anyway, keep representing correctly Villanova, the B.E is watching.

Go Nova! Get another NCAA Championship... Go Big East!

Again, I’m not interested in a close finish. Pretend it’s a Xavier game, Nova.

Should be a great game tonight!

No doubt that Villanova will prevail!

Did any one catch Dickie V on ESPN hating on the 3 pointers? Saying that it's destroying the flow of the game. Really? The HATE is real!

I'm all for pushing the 3-line to the FIBA standard... but to make it seem like the 3-line is destroying the game because Villanova is very effective on it is just pure HATE!

gonna be a LONG LONG day.... Go Cats, nerves are frayed. No more #Bang please. Win comfortably please!!!!!

But, I think this is going to be a Rock fight. Michigan is very good defensively and will run us off the 3.

Here's hoping:

Big 5 Champs
BE (tourn) champs --shout out to X
Big XII Champs
Big Champs
National Champs

Don't forget being Big South Champs also(beat Radford)

Go Nova! Beat those Big Ten boys. As a Butler fan, I dream of the day we get back to the Final Four.

In other news, I am currently at 99.9% on ESPN bracket challenge, with Nova winning. So, here's hoping for a 100th percentile finish!

Not many teams I would rather see a Big East team defeat than Michigan to win a national title. Go Nova!
