Based on Novas schedule and typically being overrated and flaming out... I didn't take them as a legit threat. Miami was a damn good team and they just dismantled them and looked great doing so. What say you BBN, legit title threat or constant pretender who is just a bit better than usual this year??

They're a scary team when they're hitting three's.. Mia had length and one of the best pg's in college basketball.. They can beat UVA & UNC ..

Based on tonight, yeah they look good enough. But they are just as likely to look like the old flame out 'Nova next game out.

I hope not. J. Wright was a total smart *** when interviewed right after Cal during the selection show and he, along with Boehoem, dissed Cal.

i want to bury this somewhere, but every defensive team worth a damn in this tournament has somehow found a way to lose except kansas and duke. not saying they're great. good lord. but if forced i'll take hairpiece over all these fools from tobacco road. k has a road paved and now he's turning the oaf loose and the refs are swallowing the whistle. screw unc, they will crap the bed. i'll settle out of court with ku or ou right now lol. ou or nova is our only prayer and they have been overrated maybe 12 straight years.

The white guy for Villanova is the key. The team feeds off him doing well. Archie armadillo or whatever. Shut him down and Villanova's confidence goes bye, bye.

If they keep shooting better than 50 percent from behind the arc, it will be hard for ANYBODY to beat them. I know one thing. I won't be rooting for KU. LOL

No they might make the F4 same for OU ..I think 3pt shooting teams have a hard time getting shots to fall in the F4...It will be KU or UNC ...imo

They are a fundamental team that keeps their opponent on their toes.
They kinda remind me of Wichita st a couple of years ago.

This being a down year,of course they have a shot at it.
I find myself pulling for Oregon or one of the teams that don't matter

They looked better than Miami by a good bit but Miami's big guy hardly played because of fouls. That help Nova a lot as they are weak down low.
Can't beat UNC imo or Oregon
