Tuesday Night Upset??

After loosing to Georgetown, Xavier has reeled off 5 Straight in the win column. But they have been less than convincing and  needed some late game poise to defeat 2 inferior opponents in the past 2 games (St. John's, and Marquette), and both of those games were at home!

Tonight they find themselves on the road in Omaha to take on a Creighton team fresh off a 22 point win over lowely DePaul after a 3 game losing streak that included a late blown lead against Georgetown, getting outplayed by Seton Hall at home, and an absolute whooping on the road at Nova. 

Creighton is Second in the Big East in scoring, T-1 in FG%, and 3rd in 3P%. I believe a combination of Creighton playing at home and coming off such a good performance getting back a little bit of momentum coupled with Xavier having not played their best recently I believe they're due for a loss to help them refocus. 

Creighton pulls the upset at home over #5 Xavier 85-78 in a fast paced up and down game.
