Agree, I think Xavier matches up better this year better than any year thus far.

That was my point and why I think the games are going to be very good. Wish you guys well, until New Year's that is!

Oh yeah, I understood what you meant. I was just thinking to myself, "Hey, this year we actually stand a chance!"

Not coincidentally, I believe, the only close game with Villanova so far was when Stainbrook was out with injury. Overall, his offensive positives outweight his defensive negatives, but just not for Nova.

Anyone know if the exhibition will be streamed?

[XUMIOH12]

not that I have heard of

OK, so I get the thank you for your AFO contribution letter, along with a list of 4 million things I can NOT do as a "booster."

I'm glad I didn't talk to Kaiser Gates when I was standing on the floor next to him in Atlanta last year. Only talked to his coach.

BJ, you'll have to can that idea of having Jalen do promo spots at your place. The Weez is probably available though.

If Ellenson is as good as advertised, Marquette has a very good frontline with Fischer and Ellenson standing at both 6'10.

I think you could take teams maybe 11 to 50 and call it a toss up if they played each other. Lots of parity this year and a weaker Top 25.

the placements of some of those teams is pretty odd.

On Xavier's website, it says the Michigan Gavitt game is on the Big Ten Network.

I thought it was a joint Fox/ESPN deal. Shouldn't it be on one of those 2 (even if the B1G is owned by one of them)?

Paul,

Homecourt determines the broadcast partner, as I understand it. I thought that meant ESPN for our AWAY game in Ann Arbor.

The B1G's BTN is a joint venture between Fox and the B1G.

If that's the case, then it really makes no sense. As a Big Ten home game, ESPN should have it.

Either way, I'm screwed if it's on the BTN.

Your not screwed go to your local bar buy a beer and watch it there

I like doing that, but I can appreciate that there are a lot of people who don't.

Oh, I'll be at the local watering hole for sure.

I'm thinking it's like the Cintas seat re-arrangement....with more choices.
