Bill Murray strikes again...
« on: March 23, 2017, 11:49:14 PM »
I know, superbar,  but our season is over.

Congrats to X on a great win.  Mark it down, they'll be in the Final Four.  Murray helped the Cubs last year, hopefully he helps Xavier.

Go big east!

I thought it was over after AZ went up 6. Mad props to X for hanging in there. O'Mara is a beast. Still can't believe MU destroyed this team 22 days ago...

The refs stopped blowing the whistle and just let them play the last 3:45. That played right into Xavier's hands!

Go Big East!!!!

Was also funny to see buzz eat crow.

Is he still pimping his name out there every off season?

This game reminded me a bit of the MU-Davidson game. Good for X and Mack

Great win for X.  Now for Butler to do the same tonight.

It's amazing to go from where they were a couple weeks ago to where they are now.  If you asked me before the tournament started which Big East team would be least likely to make a run, I'd have picked Xavier or Creighton.

Great draws help.  Maryland into FSU is as good as you can possibly ask.  Then Arizona is a really good team, but Xavier matched up fairly well with them.  Thought Xavier lost in the S16, but also thought if there was any team that was going to beat Zona in this bracket it was going to be Xavier.

Xavier is tough.   They just took a while to figure out how to play after they lost their PG.     They have size, versatility, a coach who is willing and able to switch up defenses, and a couple of big game players.    Congratulations, X.   We still beat you twice.    ;D

Bill Murray should reshoot this scene, except Carl is tossing wadded-up paper into a trashcan:

It's in the hole!!!!

Got up on them early by spreading the floor and chased their shooters off the 3 point line.

Nothing out of line, just picked Zona to win and thought X would have a really hard time with them.  They also needed more then Blueitt to score.

Not really to the bolded.  They finished out their road win at St. John's without him and then won their next 3 (vs. Seton Hall, at Creighton, vs. DePaul).  They didn't go into their slide right after they lost Sumner, they actually responded really well to it.

I've already heard Xavier be referred to as Cinderella.

I know they're an 11 seed, but really? Xavier is a mainstay of the tournament.

I wonder if this is me seeking out BE hate, but I don't think so. If Duke were an 11 seed and made an E8 run, would anyone dare refer to them as a cinderella? I doubt it.

In a tournament absent real cinderellas, X is as close as it gets this year. The team is a mainstay, yes, but every team is different. This one was dead in the water. The fact that something clicked so late is incredible.

Hey Dodds...he's the best coach we've had in the last 39 years.  Show some respect.

I consider Gonzaga a Cinderella this year if they get to Phoenix. I know they're a 1, and were ranked #1 in the polls, but as good as they are, no one really expects perennial darlings Gonzaga to cut down the nets. Even their fans and the people that picked them, hoping against hope, probably feel like it will end inevitably at some point.
