Nova is the number 1 team in the country

UCLA now #2.......quite a recovery for Alford....and his ability to get Lorenzo Ball

Good pub for the conference, and good for Nova.
They have Notre Dame, who is ranked, and Temple before conference play.
Then DePaul at home to start Big East. Before MU, they are road Creighton and road Butler.
Sure would be nice to play them at Nova if they are hanging on to #1.

UCLA looked pretty good on the road at Kentucky. A couple of really good point guards in that game. Wish the Bucks could get Ball, but he will be a high pick.
