Had fun watching the game with a cool X friend of mine. I know everyone has their own observations so I'll keep mine brief.

1) Defense was suffocating. We have got to be one of the best teams in the country in terms of not playing with our hands. This team is enjoyable to watch when they're playing great defense.

2) Offense still has a lot left to be desired. I thought our shot selection was poor at times. I'm willing to give JC the green light from where ever on the floor, but we were fortunate on some other shots.

3) Interior passing was tremendous

4) Xavier's defense was giving up the paint all game and it was nice to see us take advantage of that.

5) I love JC's game. I just LOVE IT. He's going to be one of my favorite Bearcats by the time he leaves. His intelligence really shows up on the court throughout the game especially on defense.
