Wow. This game had everything a college basketball fan could want or has come to accept. Xavier led by a lot, trailed, tied, trailed, led, and tied and led again. The game was 50 minutes of both teams running a high wire act. There was an impossibly deep three from Naji Marshall, fearless driving from Paul Scruggs, a March like atmosphere and, of course, horrendous officiating.
Where do you even start with this game? The Musketeers led by 10 at the half but could not run away and hide from a UConn team too talented to be doomed to wallow in the backwater that is the American conference.
