Conwell not being able to catch the ball cleanly on the inbound just killed them, Xavier doing everything possible to blow this game

Xavier epic meltdown! Makes me feel better on our loss today…

Marq starting their comeback, if Xavier can't hold onto a 19 pt 2nd half lead they might as well pack up the season

Glad they hung on. That was a bogus call on Freemantle. He was set and Stevie Mitchell stuck his leg in there and flailed. He got that call based on his defensive rep.

Oh my. That final Marquette possession was just a cluster. X survives.

Xavier got a lucky break and won…

I like their coach, good for them!

Great last stand by Xavier, in the last 40 secs Kam Jones missed a wide open 3 and then a turnover, he was off today

Stevie Mitchell is either an idiot or he panicked. Either way it was pretty funny to watch a guy punch himself in the face like that.

They let him get away with alot because he plays like one of the Hardy Boyz flying and throwing his body all over the court

Haha, yep. I love how hard he plays but he crashes into guys. The Hardy Boyz comment is hilarious and spot on.

Xavier, with Freemantle, is an NCAA caliber team, but they have stubbed their toe too many times this season, and now they need a miracle to get a bid.
