    That was a HUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE win last night. it should solidify an at-large NCAA Tourney bid. Two great games against Creighton and Marquette who are considered some of the best in the country.

    Yeah, Andy Fleming can coach a little bit...and it starts with defense.

    Men Enter Rankings at #16.

    Nice win by the Men. I'm leery of predicting NCAA births without seeing how they do in the Big East Tourney.

    I get the one that doubles as the season ticket. They need some fresh looks for that as well.

    Great job Soccer team. (Also, this thread title is extremely confusing when viewed on the Recent Threads column on the home page).
    I have a podcast. Sometimes we talk about Xavier: You. Me. Cincy.
    I put the X in Texas. @fleckd.

    To be honest, if they beat Georgetown, and stay strong against Nova and Butler, we could have the potential first seed in the Big East Tournament, a bye directly to Philly, and if by some change they win the Big East tournament they could even be a #1 seed and have a home game in the NCAA tournament.. However, I think the magic number to be safe for them to make the NCAA tournament is 12 wins, pick up two more regardless of where they are and they are in. Hard to not put them in with the resume they have. The early season losses are big, but they've made up a lot of ground.
