Atlantic Region Men's Basketball '25-'26

[ctrabs74]

I know it's a few days late, but congratulations to Gannon on winning the D2 men's basketball national championship. The Golden Knights made the PSAC proud, even if you're not the biggest fan of how they do things in Erie.

I'd take Gannon if gambling today.

Lander was able to get physical with Nova. They won't with Gannon.

Lander got physical with Gannon, just couldn't put the ball in the hoop. 15 missed lay ups in the first half. That won't beat Mansfield.

LIT AF will win today.

Just a hunch.

For those who are interested, I saw this little Xitter thread with a bunch of season-long and last 5 percentile, per40, and per100 possession stats for Gannon and Lander. It’s a good read on what the teams respective strengths are, and different information than the counting stats and shooting percentages you’ll likely find in most team-provided or local outlet previews.

Well since Nova Southeastern has been in the national championship game three straight years and has a ton of tournament experience, Gannon might not mind facing Lander.

Yes!! There are reasons that Nova was the One seed and Lander the fifth seed. Personally, I think that Gannon may be able to defend Lander a bit better in the half-court sets than did Nova.

That was my first time watching a 'full' Nova game.

I think Gannon would have beat Nova by 10-12 points. Gannon would have been a physical nightmare for Nova.

Lander will be a much tougher matchup. They give it back.

They give it back and have a week to rest and prepare. Lander has beaten the "system" four times this year. Should be a good one!

Yep. For all the coaches who keep recruiting the same type of players who continue to get blasted by said system ... Lander is the prototype.

Nova's press was highly ineffective.

Now, Gannon has way, way more muscle than Nova had. Lander won't be able to get a lot of what Nova's interior was giving up. Nova was pretty soft inside.

I didn’t really follow but saw a final
four post with Bearcats on their uni and was just assuming it was Northwest Misery going for yet another title because they don’t have enough of them..

No. Lander University is the opponent.

[IUPNation]

Lander vs Gannon is going to be one crazy game.
