I'm enjoying it. Two teams playing under control, making their shots, committing very few turnovers. I thing that Xavier is going to have to come out of that zone at some point to Or Georgetown is going to pick it apart.

Yea I suppose you're right. This is the first college basketball game I've sat down and watched since the epic Butler/St John's, so I guess I was unfairly expecting that level of excitement

1 thing I don't get....

Georgetown scored basket with like 8 seconds to go in the 1st half. Xavier had not used a time out in the 1st half, and if you don't use 1 you lose it.

Well, Mack doesn't use time out, and Xavier is left with a 40 ft shot with no chance of making it.

why not use time out there and get a decent shot?

It's tough to have Fire when you start a game at 11:00 in the morning. ;)

Is anyone really shocked that Creighton has another sell out today? Home run addition to the Big East!

If he did it woulda been a high screen by O'Mara for Sumner with 8 seconds left. Happens every game every year it feels like when he uses that timeout and never works
