So how many Victories will Xavier have in the A10 Tourney??

Will they go for the Championship or will they prefer to rest up for the Big Time??

Poll will close so get your votes in...

Excuse me? Are implying that they don't try to win every game? I don't think you are, but that is the way it came across in writing. I'm not so naive as to think that coaches and players don't have ups and downs, but I think that if XU does not win the A10 Tourney, it will not be because they weren't trying.

As for how many games they will win, I think the first one will be tough. Why do we always seem to draw Dayton in the A10 Tourney? We got them last year and now, this year. Beating any team 3 times in the same year is difficult, much less an arch rival.
We will, however, prevail. But I refuse to think beyond the next game.

GO MUSKIES!

Benxman, you have the mind of a champion. Focus at the task at hand. When it comes 12:00 tomorrow afternoon, Xavier will put the laughter into manslaughter.

Am NOT happy about drawing Dayton again and again and again.

Benxman,(not players) some coaches will substitute differently to save key players legs especially when they know they are already headed to the dance. They figure, if I can save the players legs and get a win then so be it. If we lose, then I still save the players legs and we are still headed to the dance. My understanding is that Miller played this tactic. Can't say that is exactly what he was doing but that was my understanding.
