Good point by Bardo, who is the emotional leader of this team. Everybody looks checked out.

I think its now safe to say that Falzon is NOT one of the best shooters in the BIG. I know CC was just trying to build him up, but his shot is flat and he is just not making them. Uggh.... what a frustrating night.

Problem is, Olah is probably the emotional leader. This is not an outwardly emotional bunch. Sanjay will need to step up as a leader and team captain.

You can kiss this season good-bye. Forget even the NIT if Olah is down very long. And I see big blowouts in early BIG play without Olah. No inside presence so they can guard the heck out of our two guards and let everybody else shoot.

You summed it up well. NU looks outmatched against a 1-9 Patriot league team.

We have a funny way to handle a bad half after losing a senior leader.

This is a mess. I don't know if I can stay past halftime. I forgot my Nitro pills...

The BTN guys stayed on script and talked about how this could be the year NU makes the NCAA.....with NU down 27-13 to a 1-9 Patriot League team.....pretty funny!

Turn on the game and watch the debacle the rest of us are seeing.....

I am watching. I'm seeing a team who's sleep walking after learning a team leader is on the shelf for an extended period of time and not surprised. Also wouldn't be surprised if Collins, McIntosh, and Demps get after it at halftime and the team turns it around.

Might have written off the season A BIT too soon. Give them at least 20 minutes to recover from losing Olah. Big Ten will be much tougher obviously, but I wouldn't give up on our guys that fast.

I could have tore my hair out in the 1st half. But good resolve by the crew and team leadership by BMac.

This team does seem to be able to focus at halftime. Several games this year NU has been less than stellar in the first half only to come out strong in the second.

Wow, can Olah be that critical to NU? This looks like a bad Carmody team.

Collins has lost this team! Oh wait....never mind.

You think you would have learned to wait to post overreax until after the game is over....

Somebody else said it out here before today. These guys still haven't played one completely solid game.

I love 12-1. I feel good about their chances for an NIT. That's a nice step. But I'm freaked about the conference season.

Look, I know Sacred Heart is terrible, but hard pressed to find anything about that game that was not completely solid...
