Kind of an underrated big game....
For Xavier- a shot to put themselves at least on the fringe of the bubble. The guy from bracketville has them as 12th team out right now. Win here and would move up a lot.
For Nova- a real big game to remain in the top 30 of NET. Home loss to #81 team would ding them pretty good and send them out of the top 30.....

Philly has been a house of horrors for X...hoping that continues. Will be interesting to see whether Steele goes big and tries to bully the Cats or if Nova can go small, spread X out and do their thing from 3.

I don't really think it will happen, but this would be a massive win for us. All of a sudden, we're back in the tournament discussion with a win.

Will be interesting for sure. I think we have a massive advantage down there, but 3>2 and that opens us up to more threes, so it could easily backfire spectacularly. We'll need everyone's best to pull it off.

I want to score the first basket and proudly say we led Nova with 39 minutes left in the game.

Oh you never say anything about the time remaining if you want it to be a good story.
For example, I can tell people I once beat an olympic track and field 800 M bronze medalist in a race. I wouldn't mention it was a decade after he won the bronze, had put on 15 pounds and the race was an 8k cross country race.

Nova second chance shots killed us. They must have had a dozen rebounds kicked back for a made three pointer. At least we led at one time.
