I'd vote to give you 10 if it changed your outcome.

Wisconsin is beginning to be a thorn in the side of the BE.


Its that damn suck the air out of the ball, slower than mud tempo. Basketball is a running mans game...if I wanted to watch 30 seconds between plays, I'd watch football!


I think it's the amount of cheese and dairy products they woof down out there. Clogged up and slowed down.

Well done Xavier. You guys torched the Noles - fun game to watch before Butler/MTSU and during the commercial breaks.

Congrats X!! Awesome game! I know the Big East didn't have a great first few days of the tournament but the ACC is crashing and burning today. Florida State and Virginia blown out. Only 3 of their 9 teams remain.

Thanks for the kind words and support guys.

Caught this blurb on Facebook:

After blowing out #3 seed Florida State tonight, Xavier is once again going to the Sweet 16. X's 6th trip to the Sweet 16 since 2008, clearly placing X among the very best programs in the country. The only other programs with as many Sweet 16s during that span are North Carolina, Kentucky, Louisville, Duke, Kansas, Michigan State and Wisconsin.

You guys did the same for us last year. Time for us to be the cheerleaders and live vicariously through X and BU ;)
Seize the opportunity and make that Final Four.

No doubt. Xavier's "Last 5" games power rating from Greenfield's Team Rankings is 12th in the country.
