Away game on senior night after we beat them at home, we will get them in AC.
BTW, it disgusts me how fast some of you people turn and completely rip on some of our own players, and I'm not even talking about anything KH related.

I love how in sports, fans of teams that are on top at the moment think that they're untouchable. There will be a time when UD won't be able to lose in Cincinnati against X. It may not be anytime soon, but it will happen in our lifetimes.
Xavier is nothing more than the flavor of the decade. There's a reason why we still lead the head-to-head series by double-digits. Their fans need to get over themselves.

This is a bad loss, this loss could very well put UD out of the dance. I feel that at this point, we need a win Saturday and a minimum of 2 A10 tourney wins (and one of those needs to be the rubber match win against X in AC). JMHO...

Seems like we had a couple minutes of good play surrounded by lazy passes and poor shot selection. Fought hard, but unforunately not enough.

Wow... Now I know why I usually don't read game thread posts. This was a game I was hoping to win, but knew it would be as difficult of a game as we would play all year. Alot of things going for X and they just outplayed us. With tons of bubble teams losing as well, win on Saturday night and we're in!

Well its a split on the season. They did to us what we did to them at our place. Time to get ready for Duquesne and hopefully we get a rematch with X in AC and settle it once and for all.
btw I think CL played hard but he just ran out of gas. It will be interesting to see how many minutes he played.

We need DS for the A-10 tourney. this game shows that Kurt just can't play at this level. he is too slow and unathletic to compete. Without a big inside we will suffer against teams like X. We should be OK against Dukes since they are a small team.

The only thing this game convinced me of is:
A) BJ Raymond is my new archenemy
B) Luke really can't play D inside yet (although he's a freshman, so for those of you already calling him a wasted scholarship, lay off)
C) We can beat x on a neutral court
D) xavier girls are still very, atrociously, hideously ugly.

"Addition by subtraction" about CL and "He should transfer to a lower tier D-I school" about ST, and those are just 2 of the quotes ... that's not something one says about someone who "didn't bring it" for a game.

I would have to disagree in saying this does not qualify as a bad loss. However, commentators did mention this could cause some problems as PSU (on the bubble) beath Illinois tonight.

Poor showing on ESPN2 (prime time game at that), not showing much in the way of playing tough on the road. A good loss, if there is such a thing would have been a single digit loss. It doesn't help when you have ESPN talking heads saying how much work we have left to do. I was hoping for a smaller point total loss than at least 13 (which is what we beat them by). If you think this loss doesn't hurt, your only kidding yourself.

A bad loss is one that you were expected to win and didn't. We were significant underdogs on their senior night. A win on Saturday and everything will be fine.

Thomas was overmatched from an athletic standpoint but I don't have any problem with his effort. Charles however plays with no heart, and that bothers me.

Come on, we both know that the final score is no indication of how close the game was, it was closer to a 10-12 point game. We had several opportunities with a short bench, foul trouble, and generally playing poorly for most of the game to make it close, keeping it within 6 pts for a large period. Really if we didn't let Dante freaking Jackson go off in the first few minutes, the game would be a lot closer. I think on a neutral court we have a good shot at them. But maybe that's because I didn't even bother walking out onto the ledge tonight, I've decided it's not worth it.

Have to wonder if the pre-game "festivities" had anything to do with not letting the game be more physical.

While we did not play very well, losing to a ranked team on their floor is not a "bad" loss.

Well, we've definitely looked up another NIT bid. NCAA; we've still got some work to do since we're not in the Big East. H3ll, UC was finally just knocked off the bubble after losing badly the other night. Of course, they do have those 2 big wins over 15-13 Georgetown...and they do play in the Big EAST.
I still think the "committee" looks for any reason whatsoever to knock out a team like Dayton. We win Saturday - then get to the finals of the A10 tourney; I'll breathe a little easier.

Actually it's been three decades and 5 presidents, 9 presidential terms .........but who's counting. If you feel better calling it the flavor of the decade go at it. 24 straight. 28 years. Wow.
