Xavier 81 Marshall 77

Marshall made it interesting enough that Chris Mack was upset with his team at the end of the game. They almost blew a 23 point lead.

X should handle Northern Arizona, pretty easily.

Did Macura play?

Nope. I think Xavier only had 8 players available.

Did Macura play?

No Macura. No Gates. No Marshall 2nd half.

They play AT Northern Iowa on Friday night, it most assuredly won't be easy.

Sorry. Misheard.

I know Macura and Gates were both out. Did they lose both Jones and Marshall during the game too? I heard Jones went down early.

Jones came back and was fine...thankfully. Marshall went out on the last play of the 1st half and never returned. Was in severe lower back pain -- which isn't good.

Those that had been clamoring for Harden saw yesterday why he isn't sniffing the rotation.

Yeah, hopefully they can get everyone back on track.

This is the time of the season they need to just make sure they can get these guys back and healthy for conference play. Dropping a game or two short-handed OOC isn't going to hurt them in the long run.
