I like:
- PC going away
- SHU to lock down the X shooters
- And UConn to be down late only to squeak one out vs DePaul at the end (in other words, DePaul again finds a way to lose even though they play well)

That Hall-X game will be huge for both teams.

Hope you're right, but 3pt defense hasn't exactly been a strength for SHU so far. That and rebounding may be the two biggest weaknesses at the moment.

Man, Butler looks very talent challenged for BEast competition. Jordan has them motivated and playing hard, but after the inevitable bashing in the weeks in front of them, it probably will get really ugly. Some of their guys look like they are still a long way off to be consistent here.

[Xuperman]

As a bonus, there is NO chance that an FS1 OVERTIME for this game will stall the start of the X/SHU game.

[Novachap]

Wow, heck of a close out to the half by the Hall. X has to be more composed when shots aren't dropping. Getting beat up on boards. Lots of time to make a run.

[Hall2012]

Some ugly 3 point shooting on both sides in the first half. I'll take it since SHU's had more success at the rim, but especially for X you've gotta think a few of them are gonna start falling.

[GumbyDamnit!]

Man, who pissed the Pirates off? They look scary good. They clearly know where the woodshed is tonight.
