Nova -6 is an absurd line. I know Neptune is new, but McKie is awful. The Owls basically hired a low budget Ollie (minus the Natty).

Not so sure, they haven't beaten Nova in a long time, it's their super bowl, coming off a very bad loss where they were looking ahead and a game that literally can make the year. Nova is still figuring it out with 2 starters out.

Last time Nova played Temple, it was also a road game. This should be a home game, but Big 5 is straight up charity at this point.

Lighting at the Temple arena is crap. Camera angle always stink. Hate this arena.

Deserved to lose this game with no ball movement. But uh, seriously, why did Nova just gift a free home game to Temple? Charity has its limits I am sick of this crap.

Is this not a Big 5 game? Are they usually played at Palestra?

I don't feel like it's a huge loss in terms of Nova's season because they will get healthy and win a lot of games. However, the metrics of them losing and the impact that has on the rest of the Big East which has been so reliant on having exceptional Cats team to buoy the league will be worth watching.
