St. John's vs #21 Wisconsin, 11/8

[TheHall]

SAMPSON with the dunk 58-54 wisky.

[TheHall]

SJU down 10 with 6 to go...Redstom being outscored 30-6 from 3.

Johnnies are horrible defending the perimeter and teams like Wisconsin that can drain threes will kill us.

[TheHall]

I think bigger problem is no reliable shooters.

[redmen9194]

Well, Harrison and Jakaar scored 20+ but its the perimeter defense. Wisconsin had at least 10 threes - that's going to be a problem for the Johnnies especially against a top team. It's a loss, but not a bad one for them or the league although it would have been nice to pull off the road upset. Johnnies have some work to do.

Not surprised by disappointed by the result.

if I had said St John's scores 75 on Wisconsin earlier I think everyone would have been really confident about it. but to give up 86? wow.

[shupirate98]

Terrible start but no shame in the ultimate outcome. Never a game they were likely to win.

Not surprised by disappointed by the result.

Agree. I'm not surprised by the loss. If this game was in December I would be more disappointed than I am. But I knew it would be a tough start. Thought maybe they would have it together and steal it. The more concerning game conference wise tonight is Nova - they are in a dog fight.

The thing vs. Wisconson is can`t go down 18 then decide to get theirs heads in the game and think they can win.
Though when they cut it to 4 I was saying could we really pull off this comeback. Then right after the Wisky timeout they hit a 3, get a stop then boom another 3, and just like that it`s from 4 and back up to 10. Those 2 threes were the dagger in the heart.

I want to go atleast 1-1 vs the 2 out of conference teams we play so we gotta beat Syracuse.

I`m watching the Alcorn St. - Creighton game on YES. 75pnts with the under12 minute timeout, if we can`t guard the 3 by the time we play them then why even show up?
