Cats win!!
- Thread starter VirginiaWildcat
- Start date
Amazing game by BMac (Happy 21st Birthday!). Some clutch moments by Tre. And Skelly was the difference maker off the bench late with non-stop energy and hustle plays. Nice win. Go 'Cats!
Lots of heart from the Cats late in regulation. If only they played with that emotion all game.......
I won't sit here and say that's a resume win, but Columbia is a nice little team with lots of seniors. Not saying they will, but they're the type of team that sneaks into the tourney and makes a little run because of their experience.
Terrible start, but the Cats just battled and battled. Great to win games like that early in the season.

Columbia looked like a bunch of gym rats. That guard Mullins was really tough to cover. They kind of gagged once the Cats got it to OT. But give them credit, they played their asses off tonight.
We were clearly the more talented team, and that came through at the end, but they are a mature well coached team that will be a handful for most power 5 schools (outside of the big boys)
How did the 'Cats almost lose to an Ivy League team??!!
Yeah, one of those experienced teams that can win one when the shots are falling.
It's a win and the guys have already experienced one of those late crunch time/OT games.
Still, this is a flawed team; missing Law (could always use another option on O, but missing his D more).

Clearly the more talented team? I disagree. Rosenberg, Petrasek and Mullins would probably start for NU. I'd say starters were pretty comparable, with NU having an edge on depth.
Swoopy hair Macauley Culkin wouldn't last 2 games in the B1G, which coincidentally is longer than he'd last in a serious YMCA pick up game. Petrasek would have a really nice warm seat right next to Pardon. Rosenberg might come off the bench and take Tap/Lindsey minutes.

Pretty funny! You may be right about Culkin, but he lasted long enough against NU to hang 22 points and 6 assists on them.....
You've been watching the 'Cats for a long time. You as well as anyone know that many bad players have put up a lot of points on us over the years. Kid had one of the best games of his career, kudos to him. I'd have a lot more respect for him as a player if he didn't do the constant flop and head jerk motion trying to a draw a foul, though.
