Xavier hangs on 96-88. Made a right meal of that one, but the win at the end is what matters. The don't ask how...

Isaiah Walker gets away with a bad one and Big Fil tips one in and, hopefully, that will do it. Walker's bucket on the other end is enough to make it eight before a foul.

Huge plays from the guys of Serbian descent may be just enough to get X over the line, but this one is still way too close with 2:25 to play.

It's just trading buckets now, except Marquette is doing a lot more trading.

Xavier is up seven, but it feels like a small seven with 6:38 to play.

Marquette has 38 points in the paint. That's maybe acceptable if you are facing Tim Duncan and David West, but this is not that. Also, that foul call on Chase Ross was awful.

You guys remember when Xavier was up 19? It's down to seven. Marquette got the benefit of the refs reviewing a call and still getting it wrong, then scored on a run out.

Jovan Milicevic drills a three from the corner to put Xavier back up 13. The Musketeers have not been super interested in defense so far this half.

Xavier has been a little lax coming out of the half and Marquette is slowly chipping away. Tre Carroll has buckets on back to back possessions.

It would be All Wright if you would be my Valentine. Xavier's guard has 16 at the break as the team has shot a casual .500/.500/.800 in the first half.

If Xavier wants a shot to line themselves up for a run, they have to win today.

Xavier find a new way to break our hearts: overtime! We get into X's struggles in close games, the triumvirate of college basketball malfeasance: Jeremy Fears, Jon Scheyer, and Charles Bediako, Darryn Peterson hating basketball and Pope Leo loving it.

Xavier loses, and stop me if you've heard this before, a close game after a hard fight. It's SJU 87-82 in a game where X shot 52.9% from the line, committed 30 fouls, and turned the ball over three times in five OT minutes.

Xavier has it within a possession. Whether they try to give a foul or not, this trip will end with SJU at the line.

Tre Carroll has turned the ball over three times in in the last minute of the game and OT. That leads to a run out and MMM fouls out.

I sometimes have no clue what Tre is doing. He's had back to back really bad shots and Xavier is now down three in a game that is getting away from them quickly.

Fouls called is a terrible way to determine how the refs are doing. There is other evidence available.

Guess who just committed their third foul by trying to block a shot he would never get to? Yeah, it was Jovan Milicevic.

We hit the under 16 with Xavier trailing, but very much alive in this game. Sure, it has been four and a half minutes, but we take being close early. Tre's foul trouble is the main concern.

Xavier played twice, but we really only want to get into one of them. The Musketeers keep being mediocre, Miami keeps being good, Doug Gottlieb keeps being bad, and we try to fix officiating all on this episode of Banter.

Xavier led by double digits in the second half twice since we last spoke and won neither game. St. John's put on an excellent comeback, Seton Hall was just there to benefit from X completely falling apart. What if we just talk about Tu and Miami instead?
