Dayton won at SMU. That’s a boost for our SOS.
With Tennessee’s outing, so to speak, our defense is now #1 in KenPom.
KenPom predicts a UH win: 73-67.
Against Purdue, Washington and St Mary’s, Xavier averaged 69.
They are at home. We’ll see. Frankly, I don’t expect they’ll score more than 60.
I go to sotto everytime I’m there lol funny you know about it. When I lived in Kentucky I went for the cincy game and stopped in there
Savannah Wheeler #4 is a cutie. Wish she was on the Coogs.
Coogs opening at -7.5
#8 seed UH Volleyball tourny on at same time as UH/X basketball friday.
Seems low to me. I know it’s a road game, but I don’t think Xavier is as good as Dayton or Utah. Guess we’ll find out soon.
I think the road venue counts for 3 points…so at a neutral site, this would be -10.5 or higher. I think it is fair considering we haven’t played a true road game yet.
Considering our defensive propensity and Xavier’s youth, smart bettors will most likely jump on the 7.5.
I know the game against Dayton doesn’t technically fit the description of a “true road game”, but 95% of the fans in that building were Dayton fans and they had their band and cheerleaders there. It was a true road game in everything but official definition. I’ll go on record saying we easily win this one by double digits.
And I like your thinking! 
Good luck to volleyball but I’m going to watch the basketball game
It’s just chili-mac on spaghetti instead of macaroni…
It wasn’t “so to speak”… I wasn’t impressed with UNC or UT’s defense last night.
Is that their on campus arena? Beautiful.
I wish we had upper seats all the way around also
And our final four, championship flags hanging from rafters in the middle of FC
Coogs all day
FWIW, KenPom ratings. UTAH 38, Xavier 41, Dayton 61.
And with a Top 10 team coming to town, it’s gonna be a jazzed up packed arena.
Still baffles me UH built TEDCU with the football program growth in mind planning for stadium expansion, yet UH did not plan for a rebuild and growth in basketball. Feritta Center should of been designed with room for expansion.
