If we win at Xavier on Saturday it will end the longest current drought on 2-0 starts in the Big East. Even DePaul and Georgetown have has more recent 2-0 league starts.
The last time we started 2-0 was in 2012-13 when Vander Blue led us to our first Big East title and the Elite 8. They started 4-0 before taking a loss in conference play. The program's best Big East start was 2008-09 when the Three Amigos started 9-0.
Wow
Gonna need our A-game for this one and hope X had an off-shooting performance. They were impressive against UConn tonight.
Winning at X will be tough. I think it'll be a coin flip honestly. Hope we can pull it off brewcity.
To start building hype for the game and disdain for X, I just pulled this video from the Library of Congress from way back when I went to MU. Watch what a program like MU would never ever do:

In any case, fights are stupid. Hope nothing like that happens tomorrow.
Why would it?

Kind of a crazy fact. Hope we end the drought mañana.
If we take an L, that's 0-4 for Shaka with judgment just one year away.
