That is a tough draw. The tie at La Salle came back to bight the 49ers. There is no way Fordham is the best team. But, having to play a Xavier team that does nothing but stay in their box is not fun.

Agree completely. All Xavier wants to do is take the game to a shootout. They know they can't hang with us. Worked for them in conference tournament last year. They remind me of a pre-shot clock basketball team that just wanted to hold the ball and shorten the game.
