they've only looked good the last few games really. lot of the other games have been not nearly as good.

 

[jds513]

Yeah I haven't watched them much. Let's go flyers

Yea very streaky and inconstant. Look really good sometimes and not very good times. Look at the usc game they played...great first half then bad second half. But definitely go Flyers

 

[mdchick]

x looks really good at making lay ups because that's what Dayton is giving them, terrible defense by Dayton

 

[mdchick]

Seriously I've never seen so many lay ups in my life.

 

[BCM]

I've just been watching the score. Does Dayton suck?

 

[UCalum08]

I can't watch Xavier because the sight of any of their players or Mack makes me sick. Literally. Sick. I threw up a little bit in my mouth just typing this.

When they are clicking, they are easily one of the best offenses in the country. Elite offense and average defense, basically the opposite of us.

 

[BCM]

Also their girls are ugly

 

[justinhub2003]

X has yet to play Defense that is even half as good as cincinnati.

they've yet to have them selves tested against a good defense so will see if that plays into the bearcats hands when we play them. Hopefully we can force a lot of mistake. I think we can shut down there bigs. And also attack them on the offensive end since they play bad D

Xavier d on the other hand is much improved. And its all because of the 1-3-1.. Hopefully we can beat it early then force them to go man to man which is even better for us

Actually, they are historically not very good defensively, but this group looks pretty good. Because of the way they looked this weekend, and the way we looked, I'm worried about that game. But, I'm hoping they've peaked early and we'll build off of these tough victories.

One thing is for sure, if we beat Butler, we're going into the game undefeated and they will probably be as well. Both teams will be Top 20. This has the making of perhaps one of the epic shootouts of all time.

Bro how many games have they had?

 

[Bearcat513]

Their early games weren't blow outs like their most recent ones. They only beat NKU by 12. MiamiOH by 9.

But they did beat Michigan by 16. So, they seem to be up and down a bit here early on. Not sure how good Dayton actually is though. That 29 point win might not be too impressive later on. I want XU to win every game until December 12th.

 

[justinhub2003]

Also Dayton is without dayshawn Pierre. A 12ppg, 8rpb guy..

Also Dayton had 1 guy in the lineup taller than 6'6

I give Xavier credit. They are good but I think they played some teams that just aren't that good. I mean Michigan might not even make the tourney. They don't impress me.

Xavier didn't look good against Miami, or nku... Again they've yet to play a team with size and defense . Maybe there really good but I'm not saying that til it's proven against better teams

 

[cincrulz11]

xavier rebounds the heck out of the ball. Farr has turned into a beast on the glass and dayton couldn't keep them off of it.

Farr and Reynolds both rank in the top 30 in offensive rebound %. They also have the 5th lowest offensive rebound % against.

 

[cincrulz11]

The American Player of the Week is @GoBearcatsMBB's Troy Caupain. 16.0 pts per game in a 3-0 week for the Bearcats

Clearly Zach Tobler is the team leader.

 

[justinhub2003]

Clearly Zach Tobler is the team leader.

Haha

What's even more impressive is that he had just 2 turnovers in all 3 games combined.

 

[jacobkdoyle]

Clearly Zach Tobler is the team leader.

The key to me is that TC took 25 shots in those 2 games. No need to talk about him moving off the ball more, if he aggressively looking for shots from the point. This is what we've all wanted him to do here.
