25 - 4 ---- (Big East vs A-10)

[XU85]

Cincinnati is now 0-5 vs the Big East.

Thanks for the stat Ed! It will come in very handy as the crosstown shootout approaches.

The most interesting thing about looking that up, other than it shows absurd dominance, former A-10 members Butler and Xavier have only played one game between the two of them against the A-10 -- Xavier's win over UD a couple of years ago.

I think it was appropriate that Xavier/Butler for the most part avoided playing the A-10 for the initial years. You don't wanna have comparisons between the level of play of the members that left and those that stayed. If they were to lose to an A-10 opponent it would look terrible. Now that the separation between the A-10 and Big East is clear they can schedule freely whoever they want.

The separation was pretty clear after Xavier crushed Dayton in Orlando, but you make a good point.

We got schooled that game to be sure... but we are 1-1 against the BE to date.
