Seems high. But who knows which Xavier team shows up. I'm taking the points.

This is essentially a two game tournament for X as our objective is to get to the dance and we will with a decent performance tonight. Tomorrow is just gravy should we win.

That being said I am hopeful our one night of getting used to the atmosphere and rims at MSG gives us a shooting advantage as we are probably not beating them without a respectable amount of 3's being made. Bernard was off and TB only had one good half. JP had the range most of the game. We need good looks and a decent %.

for a Xavier win....defense which stops Butler scoring is essential..plus Xavier must score at least 1 more point than Butler at the end of the game..lol. If Butler scores easily and often, then X will lose. Defense without much fouling is essential. Offense..only need 1 more point than Butler. LOL well that was simple. LOL

If you told me X would shoot 75% or better from the line, and limit the number of 3's taken to 15 or less (unless they're shooting treys around 40%), I'd take X and the points in a heartbeat. Won money on X for the game, and also the half yesterday. I'm parlaying my winnings into a million dollar opportunity. The son of the Prince of Zaire sent Muskieman a letter saying if he sends him just 7k, he will get a check for 5.2MM. MM is already checking out yachts. He said he is not sure if he is going to name it Muskieman or Assman. No idea where he came up with the latter.
