Thats a high scoring Shoot out. Even last year when X had a great offense, we held them to 60 something points.


We'd have to hit 14 3's to score 80 points IMO.

Im gonna go with a score like 67-61 UC

X shot 49 free throws today. They get to the line at an amazing rate. Hopefully playing at 5/3rd will blunt this some, because frankly it is the only way I see them winning.

The atmosphere should be great. I am pumped.
This is good !!

This was fantastic. Glad Cash was the one representing UC. Love it.

Who does everyone think Troy, Kevin and Jacob will be guarding?

I though for sure that UC would have the size advantage but when I checked Xavier's roster on ESPN they have Bluiett listed at 6'6, Sumner at 6'6 and the guy who enjoys showing the public his genitals at 6'5

Granted I haven't watched eggzavier in person but in no way does Bluiett and Sumner look 6'6 to me but I could be wrong.

Troy-Macura
KJ-Sumner
Jacob-Bluiett

Hasnt Clark been on Bluiett the last 2 years? Bluiett only has a total of 5 points the last 2 years. Id put KJ on Sumner. Troy on Bernard. Clark on Bluiett and Evans on Macura

I would probably put KJ on Sumner since he is best on ball and I would rather Troy and Evans not get into foul trouble. We have Cumberland if KJ gets in foul trouble. Clark and Scott could be called on as well to guard on of them.

Let's hope the gameplan is one that invites a little quicker pace and some scoring. If we can get to 70 against Xavier's soft defense I'm not sure how we lose this one.

Eggs 1-3-1 does scare me a little bit, I'm guessing we'll be launching a lot of corner 3's, let's hope they're going down.

I am confident we will win but am wondering how this works when they play 4 guards. Will Cumberland or Trey be playing a lot more than Kyle?

How am I supposed to just sit at work these next 4 days. I'm getting way too pumped for this game.
