X's RPI and SC Top 10

Postby xubball93 » Fri Feb 22, 2008 6:02 am

X edged up to 7 in the RPI.

I was a bit disappointed that DB and SB didn't make Sport Center's topten. Burrell's jump pass to Brown for a two-handed dunk was one of the sweetest assist-to-jams they've executed all year.

Especially since two of the highlights were from the Notre Dame game, and both were not as good as the DB fastbreak flush.

We have been gettin no respect from ESPN all year. Unless the game was covered by ESPN or an affiliate. I don't know if it is because Fox has rights to most of our games of what.

College Gamenight will cover all the games of the ranked teams each night EXCEPT for X. Seen it happen a few times already this year.

I was listening to ESPN radio last night and during their Sports Center update they went through all of the college basketball scores. When they got to Xavier, they played a clip of Sunderman announcing the Burrell assist to Brown dunk. It was the only clip they played and it was quite surprising to hear Sunderman on ESPN radio. If we can't get any respect from ESPN TV, atleast ESPN radio is giving us some pub.

I have to admit as much as i watch espn they are really pissing me off with horrible xavier coverage. They would rather show highlights of 2 mid pack ACC teams then to stoop down to the lowly A 10( which if you put the A 10s top teams against the ACC in a round robin I believe the A 10 would win hands down) Then in the espn poll their at 12 after georgtown lost 2 almost 3 straight and i think it was wisconsin that jumped over them for no appearent reason as well. Not sure what the deal is but espn has never gave very good X coverage except when we had a player of the year in West. All i can say is there will be a lot more coverage when we go dancing come april, yes april not march!!!!!

Well I might have to stand corrected but according to a thread at the other board College GameNight is all over X. Gym Gems and all!

Guess they even send we are the biggest sleeper to get to the final four... or something along those lines.

Can't wait to get to my DVR to see it.
