    Xavier v. Kansas St. (Sweet 16)

    "He's a little bit ball-dominant, he needs to have the ball in his hands, and he's not a good shooter." Ball-dominant … isn't that a nice way of calling someone a ball hog? Where is my Jay Bilas Thesaurus?

    That game was incredible. Probably one of the few losses X has experienced where I walked away and felt really good about the game. We left nothing on the floor that night. It was a great game and an astounding effort by our guys.

    The best game I've ever watched. I walked away from that loss with my head held high. Crawford's amazing shooting, Tu's icewater-filled veins, there were just so many great moments.

    What a game. Xavier really deserved to win it. Great play by the whole team. People remember Crawford's big shot, however the 3 free throws by Holloway were really the most impressive. Tu also created the trend of shooting before intentional fouls to stop the clock, the same move that helped Butler last year.

    Let's not forget the legendary call by Gus Johnson. The highlights of that game still give me chills.

    I put that game on DVD from my DVR. Glad to have it in the XU vault.
