Creighton played 2 of the Final Four teams this year....granted they lost all 3 matchups, but the Big East is having a great showing this year.

Too lazy to look elsewhere - SD? (or ILL)

I visited there (SD) but decided to stay in Iowa.

I didn't get to watch the 2nd half, but it sounds like Nova owned it with a 25-0 run being part of it.

With that win, the Big East is guaranteed to have a better winning % than the MVC. Should finish 2nd of 3rd best for NCAA tournament winning %.

In the tournament, Nova bests two #1 seeds in Kansas and Carolina, a #2 seed in Oklahoma, a #3 seed in Miami, and a #7 seed in Iowa. Worthy Tournament Champs! Go Big East!

I was impressed that Villanova was able to run a good play with only 4 seconds left and the length of the court.

They did get a great shot. So many times, teams have that long or longer and throw up a 1/2 court shot with 3 seconds left when they had more time to advance the ball. Nova = perfect execution to end the game.

I read an article that the guard bringing the ball up was supposed be the one shooting the ball but he heard the other guy yelling his name so he through it to him.
