The real thing we need in the tournament is a little luck.

Xavier leads the City in Luck.

Last year Xavier was an 11 seed against a 6 seeded Maryland, yet Maryland was wildly overrated and had a kenpom ranking of 46 which is 20 spots worse than any other 6 seed. Xavier was an 11 seed and ranked 11 spots higher in KP than maryland

Then in 2015 they faced an ole miss team that they were ranked 20+ spots worse than them and they expectedly won. They then made the sweet 16 by beating...... Georgia State (#68). Luck was on their side and they got face a team who upset Baylor i think on a buzzer beater.

Then in 2012 they got lucky and was able to play... Lehigh instead of Duke.

Oh How would I love if UC would get to play 2 buy games to get into the sweet 16.

Luck is what we need
