Xavier vs UCLA

[mofome]

Collison nails one right in Burrell's mug to end the half.

every player on xavier has played about as poorly as possible.

[5 star bomb]

Xavier looking very shaky. Better make some huge halftime adjustments if they want any shot at pulling this game out

[zootiehead]

Xavier is much better than this. They will turn it around in the second half.

Lavender nowhere near 100%. He has no shot of getting in the lane against Collison.

I thought Mbah a Moute's length and athleticism would give Duncan problems, but I didn't think Josh would struggle this much.

X has no shot if they're not getting offense from Lavender and Duncan. Josh should play better in the 2H, but Drew's not himself and Collison knows it.

Mo, I hope this ends up being poor consolation for you, but you made a great bet. If the X men could hit an open shot, I'd be sweating bullets right now. Ah, who the **** am I kidding, I'm sweating bullets anyway.

Xavier runs some great offensive sets to get the shots they got in that half.

[mofome]

they're missing their open shots and they get embarrassed when ucla has a good defensive series. they're one of the best ft shooting teams in the nation and they're, essentially, 0-4 from the line.

haha yeah. the only shots they can make are dunks, so you have no worries. they cant hit 3s, jumpers, or fts.

[RescueMe]

That is a problem, with Xavier if they don't shoot they have nothing else. UCLA never shoot good but they win!

Fuck it Mo we lost this one bro. Xavier has no chance in the 2nd half Lets just hope we can hit Louisville tonight

[FONT="Verdana"] Xavier has no chance in the 2nd half

Not to rip on my own team, but I don't think too many people thought Western Ky had a chance in the 2nd half on Thursday at this point....and 10 mins into the 2H they had outscored the Bruins by like 17.

Come on man it's not happening again!?!?

[rjt721]

on to the Ville

Now you're talking.

[5 star bomb]

Come on man it's not happening again!?!?

Oh hell no. Ucla wins this game by 20 or more

[jjgold]

I put this as a lose already, need detroit now in 1st qtr

common one time

[zootiehead]

Xavier -9 +650

Lots if senior leadership on this team. They will make some runs s this is worth a shot.

[DrunkenLullaby]

Come on man it's not happening again!?!?

Hope you're right, but I stand by the statement that Xavier ran sets good enough to have the better shot opportunities that half. If (big IF) Howland doesn't adjust and they get similar opps, this will get close.

[RescueMe]

I hope u wrong! I expect them to pick up

[BuddyBear]

Xavier might be the most overrated team in the country outside of Drake and Purdue. Xavier was 100% the wrong side on Thursday and it came through, Xavier backers won't get so lucky again...

[mofome]

xavier is awful.

on another note, i don't see how anyone thinks Love is going to be a star in the NBA.

[cantgetright]

x has zero chance with duncan on the bench in foul trouble... the love kid for x sucks balls, duncan has to be smarter and stay on the f'n floor

[rjt721]

Disagree on both counts.

[RescueMe]

UCLA defense at it best! That how they win!

Duncan is the main reason they're getting killed. he cant make fts, wide open 3s, or lay-ins and he gives up an offensive board on a missed ft that turns into a 5 point possession for UCLA. he is the worst player on the court fo Xavier and the 2nd best for UCLA.

[BuddyBear]

Disagree on both counts.

Well I respect your opinion a lot as you know, but this is one thing we'll have to disagree on. I felt WVU really should have won that game. I think Xavier is a pretty good team, don't get me wrong, but I think they've overachieved all year.

[5 star bomb]

omg Duncan hit 2 ft's!!!

Xavier was extremely lucky to win the game, but after watching that game I felt like Xavier was the better team.

[jackpot269]

X on aroll now!

[mofome]

X on aroll now!

UCLA far too good for this team.

[imgv94]

UCLA is going to take 27 sec off the clock every possession now..

BB, You're one of my favorite guys on this forum and I always respect your opinion as well. I do disagree here, though. Many will probably surmise that Xavier's a phony team because they're not from a power conference and UCLA manhandled them tonight. However, I think they're a legit top 10 team that ran into the best team in the country tonight and was playing with Lavender, their MVP, at around 70%.

As for the Xavier/WVU game, I just think saying Xavier was "100% the wrong side" is too strong, especially considering Xavier covered approximately 40/45 minutes. The game certainly could have gone either way, but I think that was one of those games that there wasn't a clear right/wrong side.

One thing's for sure: Mofo don't know jack about UCLA or the Pac-10.
