X should get decent pub for waxing the #16 team

Yes, it will be pointed out that Dayton was missing its #2 and #3 scorers, but it should also be pointed out that X thoroughly shut down Roberts, and dominated this game from start to finish. Very nice win for X, and good momentum for UMass.

Yes, I would love to hear from those who minimized Dayton's wins over Louisville and Pitt because of their injuries. Those were great wins for Dayton, and today was a great win at home.

Oh, and for those who wonder what Heather from ESPN meant about consistency -- this is what she meant. 36 solid minutes of intense defensive basketball with great offensive execution (the last 4 minutes don't count in my book). The whole team played a great game. My hat goes off to Stan, Dante, and CJ in particular.
