The breeze you just felt was X's three seed flying out the door. What a disappointing performance. I hope they decide to get hungry and play hard for 40 minutes sometime in the next week. I don't know what has happened but the killer instinct seems to have gone out of them. I guess the one positive out of this is that the A-10 is no longer a 1 bid league.
Work their tails off Sean!

I hope that is the disappointment speaking tonight.Mr. Neutral wrote:We'll be out after the 1st weekend.
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.

Re: Bye Bye #3 Seed
i have to agree with that. x looked like a team on a mission earlier in the season, but there is something missing from this team right now. lavender's ankle, peaked too early?Mr. Neutral wrote:We'll be out after the 1st weekend.
i just don't see x making much of a run this year, the way this team has looked lately

Re: Bye Bye #3 Seed
mm, I've felt for a while that we peaked in December/January, and while we've been winning, we haven't played our best ball in months.
And tonight gives no indication we're going to return to our peak performances.

Re: Bye Bye #3 Seed
Agreed, Gary. But, if you mention that while they're still winning, you'll get ripped. This team hasn't had many convincing performances for a long while. Very disppointing and, if they don't find that A game before Thursday, they won't make it beyond the first weekend.Mr. Neutral wrote:mm, I've felt for a while that we peaked in December/January, and while we've been winning, we haven't played our best ball in months.

Re: Bye Bye #3 Seed
Joe, don't you have to get in line with the rest of the dayton local trash for the play-in game at the dump? Didn't your flyers just lose the 6th straight to your idol?
It was a piss poor performance. X ruined a chance at a 2 seed and most likely a 3 seed but even with a 4 there is still plenty of room to make a run IF this team's motivation and hearts can carry them. There is plenty of talent, now its time to use it.

X has to be the greatest team then because the lost how many in Feb. playing the ball you all think they have played?Mr. Neutral wrote:mm, I've felt for a while that we peaked in December/January, and while we've been winning, we haven't played our best ball in months.

I will take undefeated in Feb any day.

Re: Bye Bye #3 Seed
Xavier I believe is locked into a #3 seed and this is a typical result between a team that is fighting for their NCAA tournament lives vs. a team that isn't. Nex weekend you won't even be thinking about this game. Were you thinking about the URI loss in last years A-10 tourney when we were leading the #1 seed Ohio St. late in the second half of last year's second round?
