Stephen F. Austin @ Xavier, 8:00
FS2: Steve Physioc, Jim Jackson

huge game for the Hall. real important to win today so they get the into winners bracket in the tourney.

And SFA will be a stern test for the very young Muskies. We are still wondering when Edmond Sumner will make his first appearance for Xavier after a bout of chronic tendinitis. Based on the few clips available of him in action, he should add a new dimension to the team that we haven't seen since the Victor Fleming days of the Bob Staak coaching era.

SHU 8 point favorites. Tip off in 45 mins. If they are to win their likely opponent Clemson was upset in the first round by Gardner Webb

I've heard the Thanksgiving tourney at the earliest for Sumner's debut. That was over a week ago though so wouldn't rule anything out. It will be really interesting to see how that affects an already crowded guard rotation.

Well thanks to Clemson there really is no good scenario for the Hall. Losing to Nevada is obviously inexcusable, but all a win gets them is another sos disaster game against Gardner-Webb.

Wow, Clemson lost to Gardner-Webb today? They lost to Winthrop at home the other day too.

Xavier had better watch out for SFA. The Jacks were great last year and despite losing this season to Northern Iowa who will probably make the NCAA tourney.

Free throws, Pirates! So many points left on the floor already...

Sexton Hall should win this tournament if you ask me. Anything less would be disappointing.
