Not really a banner day for the conference today, and these were the higher-seeded teams to boot.  

Maryland has looked a bit down this last month, so that doesn't surprise me they got beat by Xavier.  But Purdue has played really well against everyone not named Michigan.

Really impressive, and without the aid of Sumner (a Detroit native), who was the second leading-scorer on the team before he went down for the season with injury. This game might have been an absolute laugher with a fully-healthy X team.

Anyway...

Let's get it done tomorrow. Because -- even tho it's a tough draw for us, for sure -- a rematch with Louisville would be a lot of fun.
