X at Georgia 7pm ESPNU

  • dave
    Should be a good game between 2 potential bubble teams. Both are 16-6 now, possible 2nd round matchup teams for OSU in the tourney.

    Im taking Georgia -4.5. If they hit over 70% of their FT's and they should cover.

    You haven't watched an X game this entire season. Don't come on here and tell me how teams should cover. How'd that go for you?

    Also, X won't play OSU in the 2nd round. We will end up having the resume of a 6/7.

    You are right, I havent. I have read most of your posts saying how bad Xavier had been playing though. You have been beating them down all year.

    I'm beating them down in comparison to what I am accustom to seeing. We are still certainly better than a middle of the road SEC team.

    They just lost to Charlotte, they could easily drop to an 8 seed. It's not like their remaining schedule is going to help their SOS, RPI if they lose a couple more.

    X should finish out the season with an RPI around 16-20, just like they always do.

    They can afford to drop another game this year (although they really shouldn't). And as long as they make it to the A-10 finals, they should get about a 6 or 7 seed.

    Not too bad for a team completely decimated by injuries this year.

    Lol. So the loss to Charlotte will cripple us. Considering it is already factored into our RPI and we have a top 20 RPI at the moment, I'm not going to worry.

    Same story every year. Same results every year.

    SOS top 30, RPI top 25.

    They won't keep a SOS in the top 30. I hope you are right about a 6 seed, I was at the St. Louis game this weekend and they should have won by 20, they just don't seem to quite have it together. My point is if they lost to Charlotte how can you assume they won't drop 2 or 3 more games? You don't have to get so defensive.

    I agree. If you happen to disagree with an X opinion he coils up and fires back. Dude, we are just posting opinions and asking questions. We dont claim to know more than you.

    Sadly, you are right the SOS will drop. I forgot that Fordham is worse than they typically are. Top 40 though I don't think is out of the question.
