Once again all the hype went one way and the win went the other. Xavier's rock solid junior point guard carried the day by doing exactly what his team needed to get to 23-3.
Xavier met a top 25 opponent at home last night and ran their record to 5-1 against other teams with the number in front. Ponder for a moment that not only has Xavier played six other ranked opponents this year, but that the only game that they lost was on the road to the #1 team in the nation in a game in which their point guard suffered a horrific fall.
