Illinois loses to Xavier

[BU fan]

Illinois 59
Xavier 65

Illinois did not look good. Except for Jamar Smith. They need to adjust the offense to get him more shots.

I ALWAYS enjoy seeing the O&B lose.

Unfortunately, it doesn't happen very often.

However, this one is double sweet for me. I became a follower for Xavier back when Lumpkin, Brown, D Williams and Posey were freshmen (96?)... then I lived in Cincy area for about 5 years and rooted for them.

Way to go Muskies!

This loss will make it extremely difficult for Illinois to make a strong at-large case unless they do some special in B10 play, IMHO.

After the last article with coach BW whinning about player's not buying into his system......the illini will faulter......IMO!
