Miami is very, very good. They remind me a lot of last year's UK squad.

Rj Hunter was a fantastic talent and Georgia state was a good win.

X also beat Alabama, Missouri, Cincy and ole miss last year. And Tennessee, Cincy, Alabama and wake the first year out of conference.

Xavier has been pulling their weight.

And Friday night was an awesome road win against a ranked team, so if you view that as their biggest big east win is that really a bad thing?


The question isn't "has X pulled its weight." The "honest question" asked was who has Gtwn beaten? I suggested: Nova. I asked whi did DudeA feel was X's best win. Why are you trying to take it down a different path?


To answer your question. In order. Georgia St. > Ole Miss > Michigan > Cincy (x2) then a bunch of intra-conference games.

Yeah and BU was not ready to fight threw a tough start, but it's back to a reasonable score if they come back out swinging.

Beautiful thing about Butler is they will never give up. If anyone can come back it is them.

Making it interesting after benching two starters in the second half. Seems to have woke them up!

Butler just can't get the stop they need.

Good comeback by Butler, just couldn't get stops. Tyler Lewis looked awful tonight, he gave then nothing.

Rodriguez was more than he could take tonight. Wore him out and scored a bunch on him. Fought back, but just didn't have it for a team that was this on fire tonight.

Butler couldn't get a stop in the first half. But they showed a lot of character the way they fought back. I thought they had it but those back to back empty possessions around 2 minute mark was the killer.

Dunham is an awesome shooter. Should have had more attempts. I am not as big a fan is his mid range game when he tries to create off the bounce with a fade away.

Roosevelt jones had a tough second half. He had a tough time penetrating into the lane. Had a tough time finishing in the lane. And he was brutal from the charity stripe. It looks like he is falling back when he takes a ft.

Butler still looked good. I think Miami was just a bit underrated.

Can't argue with a thing you had to say NovaBall. Lewis just disappeared this game is about all you missed. Hope he was just sick or something, but he didn't give us anything tonight.
