Excellent post, lifelongBEAR. Seriously, I learned all this press stuff playing elementary school basketball through the Glendale YMCA. But, you know, it works!
Keys to the Xavier game include a "less than 10 turnover" performance, and a cumulative guard foul-total less than 10. Last night our threesome had 13--13!--fouls. Inexcusable, sloppy, reactionary basketball.
Keefe was huge. Westbrook and Mbah a Moute improved markedly from last weekend's TAMU game--though Luc still looks a bit rusty (four traveling violations in two games?!).
However, despite KLove's dependable clutch performance, Shipp was the secret key to victory last night. Is the slump over? 5-9 shooting and 6 from beyond the arc should give us hope.
It's kinda weird to be the "hated program" in this year's tourney. Florida played that role last year. Oh yeah, that's right--they won it all!
