Oh, no question Butler is at the top of the dislike list.

Definitely, no questions asked.

Yeah, but they have a soft spot in my heart for effectively filibustering Dayton out of the Big East. Ditto Creighton.

I think Butler wins in a walk. Some of the stuff that was said to my X grad Daughter & I at Hinkle last year cannot be repeated in polite company.
That place has the biggest inferiority complex of any gym I’ve ever been in.

Oddly enough, I heard about six "Fuck Ohio" chants from the DePaul student section when I went to Chicago last week. Don't think it was directed at any individual Xavier fans, but was surprised to hear that from them.

Check that, I was surprised they had students in attendance period. Even for a then-Top 10 team.

But we know Creighton fans and students will definitely be out in full force tomorrow.

Went to the game in Omaha last year and had a great time before and after the game with Creighton fans. Couple older CU fans bought our group a round of shots (twice). I like McD and Creighton. Couple years ago my 12 yo son sent a letter to McD saying how much he liked his son Doug. Couple weeks later a letter came in the mail with a personally signed picture from Doug.

Game is at 11, so where can a man get a drink in this shithole town at 9:30?

Update: Embassy Suites is serving mimosas. Crisis averted!

I would be surprised if X can pull out another road win they have been great all year on the road with just 1 blimp on the radar that could have also been a win.

That said this Xavier team has been surprising me all year long in a good way so here is to another surprise win.

Crowd is going to be in a frenzy today. Need to take them out of it early like they did at UConn.

Looks like it’s going to be charge fest. Yeah that’s right Brian O’Connell is in the house.
