X an underdog at home vs Creighton? Wow! I think Creighton is the better team but that surprises me a little.

Xavier has lost 6 in a row with the last 2 a road loss @ Creighton by 22 and then a home loss to DePaul by 12.

This may be Xavier's last best shot to get a win with their remaining schedule.
@ Providence
@ Seton Hall
Villanova
@ St John's
@ Butler
St John's

They are underdogs in all 7 remaining games, with tonight and final game with St John's only games with more than a 31% chance of winning.

I think Creighton will blow Xavier out. Xavier will be good again soon enough, but they lost so much and they look like a shell of themselves this year. Creighton has had some tough luck and they really do have a good team. I feel like they're 1 stud away from being top 25 worthy.

I agree! Please send over Ponds or Heron or both ASAP!

I dream of the day, and that day may never come, when David Duke is allowed to drive the lane with a stiff arm, put in a layup, and have the refs actually call a foul on his defender. But until that day, i will watch Phil Booth do it. What a joke.

[Westbrook#36]

Only looks like a stiff arm, because he's trying to break free from Duke/Diallo's constant clutching, grabbing, and holding. Need I remind you Providence was in the bonus and shooting fouls with 14 min left in the 2nd half.

[MUPanther]

Creighton must win to just stay on the bubble.

[GumbyDamnit!]

It wouldn’t be an official BE game without the obligatory: “the refs caused us to lose,” banter from the losing fan base. I guess I imagined Nova being called for 5 fouls over a 17 second stretch. But, yeah those refs...

[Omaha1]

Creighton looks awful offensively. Can’t hit shots or free throws. Only down six which is the good news.
