Welp Bluiett better get back fast cuz if Xavier's losing this bad to Providence, Seton Hall and Marquette might beat X by 40.

I say 50, you guys suck.

Good grief, don't apologize. He deserved it.

St. John's 82 - Butler 76

Good 17 minutes and then just terrible after that. Congrats to PC for taking advantage. Definitely don't see X winning the next 2 games without Trevon. If you take the best 2 players off any team though I think they would have a tough time winning, especially on the road.

Seton Hall up on Creighton on CBSSN 40-37. Big home stand for the Hall.

No need to apologize. Shouldn't post while my teams losing never a good idea. The problem is Xavier's going to have go zone while Bluietts hurt. They proved it tonight when the couldn't get a stop in it and still stayed in zone. Powell, Carrington, Rodriguez, Reinheart, Howard, Hausar, and Johnson are all going to shoot the lights out with the amount of open looks they'll get. Also Providence doesn't have a dominant Big this year and Gaston took advantage of that big time...against Fisher and Delgado it's not going to happen. Providence was probably Xavier's best matchup in the conference and they flat out smacked Xavier. Just frustrated... my fault

[sciencejay]

Why do we always let one guy on the other team shoot 99% from three?

[herodotus]

Yow! Xavier has gone from a team that had a chance at a 3 or 4 seed, to one that looks like it's heading for a 9 or 10.

Whew! What a game! Creighton was raining threes as usual, but Khadeen Carrington threw this Seton Hall team on his back and willed them to a huge, potentially season saving win. This was the first game all year when Seton Hall's big 3 all played strong games. They'll need another effort like that plus a little more Myles Powell to beat Nova on Saturday, but at least they'll take some momentum and confidence into it. Great win, go Pirates!
