How Sweet it is

[Muskie1000]

If you told me a month ago we'd be here I would have said you were insane... but here we are!

[D-West & PO-Z]

Yesss!!!

[GoMuskies]

7 for us now?

[xsteve1]

Hell to the fucking yeah. So proud of the team and staff.

[LadyMuskie]

Can't wait to see the billboards around town reminding everyone that X MARCHES ON!

[Bearcat_Bounce]

Congrats boys! I think you would have beaten Baylor anyways. I said Xavier was the second most dangerous team in the Big East behind Villanova and I stand by that statement! Xavier has been a really good tournament team for nearly two decades.

[Musketeer_15]

God I love this team!!! Beat Arizona!!!!!!!

[GoMuskies]

First Sweet Sixteen for any team in the "new" Big East! Hope we have lots of company soon.

[Masterofreality]

Yeah, let's get some more credits!!

[X Factor]

Jalen is a character. Love the wink after the interview.

Congrats Coach Mack and players!!!! Absolutely love it!!

Let's go wreck a Lexus.

[bobbiemcgee]

[Porkopolis]

So very proud right now. My Lord, this feels good!

[GreatWhiteNorth]

This team got HOT at the right time. What shooting! WOW ! Xavier Nation is so proud.

[jhelmes37]

Talk about gelling at the right time. How about with two weeks left in the season?!?

Time to ride, baby! Hell yes!

Let's go wreck a Lexus.

Let's do it.

[JAPER]

You have to relish every one of these sweet sixteens. 5 of the last 7 years! Tip of the hat to Georgia st. Well played.

Heck yeah bro!!! we made it !!!

[RealDeal]

Heck yeah bro!!! we made it !!!

Yes we did bro!

[JimCoker]

I like our start time better than UC's. Oh that's right...

[gladdenguy]

Snipe Garvin Kahns and Runner and myself held down the Danas fort. Unreal night.

[XfansinKy]

This is why I love Xavier!

[Xavier]

Awesome stuff. What I love most is first tournament game was all Dee and stain. Second was all Myles and Reynolds.

Excellent!

[LadyMuskie]

Everyone better remember where they were and what they were wearing, eating, and drinking tonight and recreate it all next weekend!

[bobbiemcgee]

I was buck naked, eating Skyline and drinking a Hudepohl. Probably won't go over so well in LA.

This is not my problem. Find a way to make it work, Bobbie!

[DC Muskie]

We have 15 tourney wins since 2004 and two elite 8's. Gonzaga has 12 with no Elite 8's.

Caddies kind of suck. Let's go Bugatti

Smart to get this in tonight. :)

[GreatWhiteNorth]

X might be the only BE team advancing to the Sweet 16. Butler is not looking good vs ND so far. It's a shame to see Nova went down to defeat.

[GreatWhiteNorth]

I correct myself.......Butler just tie it up.

[D-West & PO-Z]

I was skyping with my buddy who lives in Illinois during commericals and the first timeout he was like "Where is your jersey from last night!??!" And I was like oh shit let me go get it on, thanks! Then we rolled. We owe him. And my #34 Lloyd Price jersey!

[mohr5150]

How sweet it truly is, my friends. It's even sweeter after going through the rollercoaster ride of a season we had. Dee came up huge again for us tonight, Jalen was a beast on the offensive side of the court (struggled a bit on defense), and those two made 3's at the end of the Ole Miss game brought back smooth Myles Davis. It worries me a bit how far Bluiett has fallen off lately, but this team is clicking at the right time. The pundits can say what they want, Georgia State is a good team. They would give most tourney teams a run for their money. Now it's off to play one of my most disliked sports people on the planet. Let's t-bone this Lexus with our Buick!

[Xavier]

Agreed about bluiett but man, he had a huge 3 for us.

JP stop that hopping!

[D-West & PO-Z]

Yeah and I dont think we need Bluiett to do a whole lot on offense for us right now the way Stain, Jalen, Dee, and Myles are playing. Need him to play some D, get some good rebounds, and knock down the occasional timely shot.

[Strange Brew]

Been wearing the same gear since the BE tourney. Nothing but the underwear has been washed.

[X-Fan]

Wait, isn't this is a "Transition" year?!? Ha! I'll take it!

For those that point out that X beat an 11 & 14 seed to get here, I say "O effing well!" For YEARS X could not catch a break in the Tourney, now they finally do. Even with that said, X had to beat two "hot" teams, and did it like stone cold killers! 81.3 pct shooting in the 2nd half?!?! Are you kidding me?! Love these guys! We've said the whole year that if it ever "clicked" for X, watch out! Well guess what, X has a team with deadly shooters and skilled bigs. We may not beat Zona, but I bet we go out like G's.

Go X!!!!

[bobbiemcgee]

X might be the only BE team advancing to the Sweet 16. Butler is not looking good vs ND so far. It's a shame to see Nova went down to defeat.

looking better now
