This is why having a true road game against this caliber of a team, this early on in the season, can be troubling.

Started strong vs Rhode Island last year and went ice cold in the second 1/2. This game looking the same.

Same coach, different team. It'll all depend if they can get hot again. They are playing pretty solid defense overall. Need a couple calls as we go and just need to shoot better as they did early and they can compete with em.

Yeah and unfortunately this Villanova team is a wee bit better than Rhode Island so it will be a bit harder to come back tonight.
Nothing is impossible though, just need to own the first 5 minutes of the half.

3-0 for fouls on us?

 
It's tough playing good D for 30 seconds and then losing it by not blocking out properly. Gotta give Ochefu credit though, he is a baller.

 
Don't get how it's a foul when a offensive players lowers his head and goes into you... So you're supposed to let him score?

Come on Matty, Nova is a much better team than RI was last year!

Lol you think? I was talking about Nebraska. Not the same team they were last year.

 
Pretty brutal one sidedness by refs tonight. Taking away every chance Nebraska has. I mean, for Nebraska to beat Villanova they need some calls, haven't got one yet.

 
Is it just me, or have there been a lot of 3-pt attempts this game?

I mean honestly I don't think this game has been poorly officiated.

The way we play, we aren't going to get a lot of fouls because we play too fast and look for the open shot; through cutting to the basket or taking threes. This will continue if we can't establish an inside game.

Nova is getting these calls because of Ochefu and their inside game. They control the paint and teams who do that normally get more calls going their way. Plus they are a lot more experienced than us.
