    That second half was an affront to basketball.

    I think Chris Mack was right in one respect - the silver lining of going late was that Missouri/Florida State won't finish until a very late hour themselves. That said, it was good to get a root canal like that out of the system. Gotta be much sharper on Sunday to avoid being on the wrong side of history.

    Survive and advance, that's the name of the game this time of year. Of course, the bastards didn't cover, though.

    Well other than being the longest tournament game on God's green earth, that was a lot of fun huh? Karem Kanter channeling his inner Rajon Rondo, March JP and Tre were activated, and we put up the highest score in the tournament so far. I'd love to see that momentum continue on into Sunday. One game at a time, but must say, we were in control once JP went on his "steel balls" run and never looked back. Good to see us stomping on their throats and not letting them back in. Defense was a little porous at times, but overall, how can you really complain about putting up 102???

    We will find a way.

    The insanely efficient scoring lines of Macura and Kanter are astonishing.

    Yeah this board loves to go into meltdown mode, but it's not style points anymore. We were definitely looking ahead to game two, and it show'd with how nonchalant we were, but at the end of the day we won by 19 and are moving on. It's good to see Trevon and JP lighting it up, and Kanter's second half was absolutely ridiculous, that behind the back fake was so "Rondo-esque", just beautiful. Nothing to see here, it's over, Mack will get in their grills and get them ready for Mizzou or Florida State. I don't think we'll see a concentration broken Xavier for the rest of the tournament, and hell, if that's the worst we play and still put up 102, I'm okay with it.

    Unfortunately, that would make UC’s trip to the Final Four much easier.

    Golf is a relatively simple game, played by reasonably intelligent people, stupidly.
