Best game I've seen in person: Xavier/Georgetown in '90
Game I would have changed: Ohio State in '07 I might have said but I think if Sean would have won that game I think he would have been gone. So I talked myself out of that. I have to go with the majority.
Duke '04 as my final answer

1. UC XU in '99
2. Hands down Bengals Steelers the year Palmer tears ACL on first play. Absolutely no doubt we win the superbowl that year and probably changes this franchises future forever

2008 NCAA Regional semi final against West Virginia was the most exciting game I have been to. Bj Raymond with the dagger to put Xavier in the elite 8.
I agree with others the Duke game in the elite 8 with Lionel and Sato. I wish we could have won that game. Phantom foul calls on Myles killed us.“Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence wins championships.” -Michael Jordan

2004 Xavier vs Texas. Sweet Sixteen - Atlanta. We finally broke through to E 8.

Too many memorable victories but probably the XU-UC 1990 Shootout. I was getting pelted with popcorn and beer on my own home floor by a bunch of UC law school students but we won. A game which ending I would change: XU-UCLA 2008. For no other reason than it would've gotten us to the FF.

#1 is tough. I've got a couple. First is the 2012 KU vs. Mizzou game. It was the last time they played before Mizzou jumped ship to the SEC. KU came back from down 19 in the 2nd half to win in OT. I've never felt an entire crowd revel in their shared hatred of the visiting team like that Allen Fieldhouse crowd. Second is the 2014 AL WC game. The Royals were down 4 runs in the 8th inning to the A's before came back to win in extras. IMO, that game really launched the Royals towards their WS championship the nest season.
#2 is 2012 Reds vs. Giants NLDS Game 5 and it's not close for me. If I could take back the Posey grand slam and see the Reds move on to the NLCS I would be eternally grateful. That was the single worst feeling I've ever had watching sports.

#1 is Tough. X over St. Joe's in the A-10 Tournament. X over Villanova at Cintas when Nova was ranked #1.
#2 I'm tempted to go with X/Duke in the Elite 8. But also the X/Wisconsin loss in the Second Round. That team was special."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?
