They just beat Buffalo, an NCAA tournament team the past two years, by 30 on Monday. Lehigh was picked to win the Patriot League-- I don't think there's any shame in a narrow win. There's nothing to suggest so far that Xavier is overrated, especially because they return the bulk of a team that was a 2 seed last year and very well may have made a run to the Final Four if not for a heartbreaking loss to Wisconsin at the buzzer.
I'm not into moral victories, but we basically controlled that game on Thursday and showed an incredible amount of potential. Today was a step back, yes, but this is a young team that will probably be pretty inconsistent.
