I believe Bearcats and Bengals football and the recent domination by XU has taken the attention away from this game on the UC side. Also CWM is not yet hated by X like Mick was. I know I used to be on pins and needles leading up to this game when it was competitive. I've lowered my expectations so hopefully I'll be pleasantly surprised.

- I think Viktor Lakhin may be the most important player on Saturday
- Ody Oguama has a chance to play the X-factor, as Vik will need some help containing Zach/Jack defensively
- Need Josh Reed or Daniel Skillings to have a solid game
- Hopefully some extra fire for Mika Adams-Woods and potentially masked up (broken nose) Jeremiah Davenport, trying to avoid 0-4 against Xavier
I vote XU freshman Desmond Claude (3/9 on the year) as the random Xavier player to hit a bunch of 3s
Power Rankings of most likely to receive a Technical Foul:
1) Zach Freemantle, X
2) Viktor Lakhin, UC
3) Landers Nolley, UC
4) Adam Kunkel, X
5) Daniel Skllings, UC
6) Some random bench guy for XComment

Laughed at number 6 above. However, it seems that X seldom gets the technical calls. I remember back in the brawl, Lurch was knee deep into it and skated away free.Comment

My, how far we have fallen. Used to be, our defense would keep us in this game, whether we are having a good year or not. Defense and toughness have gone the way of the dodo bird. It's not like this team can score lights out.Comment

And sadly, our fans complained about our defense orientated teams. I wonder if Mick would consider coming back once UC is in the Big 12 and UCLA is in the B1G. Travel may not be great in the Big 12 but it will be a whole lot better than it will be in the B1G. We have seen what Mick can do with recruiting when he is at a school with a name on the front. Oh well, we as fans and the administration seemed to have run him off.Comment

It isn't Mick alone, but it started with Ed Jucker and then the Huggs family. We had a rare treat for years.Comment

Jeremiah Davenport will be wearing a mask todayComment

If it helps with his shot selection I am all for it. He needs to be a leader today.Comment

Hilarious to view the Xavier fan forum “Musketeer
Madness”. The moderators in particular are
pompous asses. According to them they are our
”World Series or Super Bowl”.
I like to ask new Xavier acquaintances which of
the 3 majors they studied:
1- Sanctimony
2. Righteous Indignation
3. Holier than Thou-Ed mess
i was always taught people that live in glass houses
shouldn't throw stones but whatever.
