Just one thing here: Xavier Basketball

Xavier has won 3 Shootouts in a row and 7 of the last 9. Surely UC is due for a win this year....right?  UC is at home and favored by 4.5 points by Vegas.

Let's Go Muskies!!!

In our first true road game of the year, it doesn't get much tougher than this! Baylor is 3-0 vs ranked teams in the early season so far. X and Baylor are 2 of the 15 undefeated teams left in the NCAA.

Let's go Muskies!!!

Xavier tips off the regular season tonight against Lehigh.

Fun Facts:

• Lehigh University is a private school in Bethlehem, PA with about 5,000 undergrad and 2,000 grad students. (A few hundred students different from Xavier)
  
• They've made the NCAA Tourney 5 times, most recently in 2012 as a #15 seed where they upset #2 Duke and then fell to our beloved Musketeers in the Round of 32
  
• Mascot is the Mountain Hawks. They were the Engineers from 1865 until 1995.

Here we go! For those of us (most of us) who don't know, Ferris State is in Big Rapids, Michigan. They have just shy of 15,000 students and their colors are crimson and gold. They play DII in all sports except DI in hockey.

Hailing from Ferris State have been a handful of NHL players as well as the current Tennessee Vols head football coach, Butch Jones.
