UW beats Xavier in Vegas... a miracle.

Post by Seattle or Bust » Sat Nov 18, 2023 7:25 am

Sean Miller led Xavier club that won 27 games last year and made it to the Sweet 16.

They play SDSU for the finals in the tournament.

Simply amazing.

Defense was really good. They got Xavier into foul trouble in the second half - were in the bonus at the 14 minute mark.

Survived a tough night from the floor from Keion Brooks who was just 5 for 17 from the field but converted on free throws.

Big difference in the game was they committed 10 turnovers compared to 18 from Xavier.

Franke Kepnang had his best game as a Husky. 8 points, 12 rebounds, 2 blocks... lots of energy... played for most the game.

Crazy.

Can't shoot worth a lick and had 11 turnovers in his first 2 games. Only 3 turnovers last night.

He can finish pretty well around the rim and knows how to get in the paint which is something we haven't had in a couple years.

I hate basket ball.

Maybe I shouldn't post when I'm drinking, but the fact remains, that I hate basketball.
:D
