The
first game on Wednesday was just not going to be good when American's star
forward Matt Rogers left the game in the first half after twice injuring his
right knee. American could no longer
hang with Mount St. Mary's after Rogers exit, especially when Mount guard Xavier
Lipscomb finished with 17 points after starting the game with a three.
Tell
me why Xavier Lipscomb is playing for Mount St. Mary's and not playing for Xavier
or Lipscomb???
Anway,
Mount St. Mary's beat Xavier, 83-72, and now gets to
play Duke. Good for you.
The second
game between Tennessee and Xavier seemed like it was going to be a snoozer
when Texas had a 13-point lead midway through the first half and held the
lead up until about 7 minutes left in the second half.
Then
we had a game.
And I
could not help but look at Texas's head coach Rodney Terry in that moment and
think it was Gus Fring from Breaking Bad looking very worried.
 
He
should be worried.
Texas
lost to Xavier, 86-80.
Now
Terry has to answer to the
Texas fans and the Texas Athletic Department for losing in a First Four game.
Texas's
loss means the SEC is now 0-1, and we didn't even really get started.
