The three helped but our interior play, on offense improved greatly in the second half.
Xavier hit two threes all night.

Please tell me you are not blaming the refs. They called enough fouls. We went 6-18 !!!! God I need a drink.

Apparently you didn't see us getting mugged in the lane constantly, which affected our ability to run offense. It was pretty ridiculous, I thought everyone would have noticed.
I do not think the officials had anything to do with the outcome of this game at all..I remember Tarik getting one foul on him late in the game when he was trying to get position which was a bad call..Also the 3 on 2 break late in the game that Tarik hit the layup +1, in which he missed, there was no contact on that play at all..I didn't think it was one sided at all..

No might about it.
We'd still have a better than 35 RPI.
As long as we go to championship game of CUSA tourney, we're in.
A team's RPI doesn't matter in the seeding process. It is all about who you have beaten. Memphis doesn't have the quality wins.
Wasn't that Jerry Palm's point when you went postal on him?
I wasn't talking about seeding... I was talking about being at large.
If we lost 7 games, we might be in the play-in game, but I think we'd still be in.
