Saturday's Games 3-5-16

Great game XU. Lots of fun watching these two teams battle.

It royally sucks. I feel like Creighton should be in the tournament this year. They've had 7 games now where they lost by 6 points or less. Win half of those, and they're in the tourney easily. But now, you guys might not even make the NIT....

Gutsy effort. Hopefully we get another shot at X next week.

I'll focus on the positive. Jays were down 16 at #5 with five minutes to play and cut it to two. Had a great chance and left it all on the floor.

oh heck yeah. Kind of bizarre that a 1-3-1 got you back in the game given that's X's strategy so much. Of course I remember the saying about pressing teams.....

Looks like we've locked up 5 bids. Time for the rest of the Big East teams to let Creighton run the table and make it 6 teams .

Heck of a game Creighton. Never let up even down a man. Xavier could have quite the 2nd round game in NY assuming they get past their first game.

Gotta clean up the sloppy play at end of games. 5 pt. trip? Just bad decision making. Anyway, 1st time we beat everybody at least once.

On the post game coach Mac said he didn't know if Zierden would play again this year.

Great game dawgs. Congrats on the win and most likely locking up a bid.

Senior night couldn't have gone better for us! (Well you could have left Kellen alone for a few more shots, but because you kept KD mostly doubled, Etherington and Gathers got some wide open 3s and Agent 0 (Etherington) was the high scorer for Butler!) Glad the Ellenson will be moving on next year both because he's good, but needs to mature a little emotionally. (NBA will cure him of that really quickly.) Good luck the rest of the way MU! See ya next year unless we both make the BET championship. (I'd take that for sure, so win until we meet again!)

but needs to mature a little emotionally.

Please elaborate.
