Is it possible we somehow know less about both of these teams than we did going into Wednesday night’s matchup in Cincinnati?
Prior to the game, Xavier announced Quentin Goodin would miss the game with a knee injury suffered in Saturday’s loss to Marquette, which put the Musketeers behind the 8-ball before the game even got underway.
Throughout the first 17 minutes of their 81-75 victory, the Musketeers looked absolutely lost. Georgetown, led in the first half by Jessie Govan and Greg Malinowski’s hot shooting (22 combined points, four combined threes), got out to a 17 point lead by the final media timeout of the first half.
