Cincinnati Enquirer: Execuation Worth Shouting About

I am aware that I'm preaching to the choir here, but even the outsiders noticed it. This came about becuase of Xavier's 60-49 win over the weasels on Sunday. Some gem quotes in there:

Playing Badgerball is like watching a cobra digest a rat. It's interesting until it becomes tedious, in about a minute.

It gave Xavier an eight-point lead with 4:26 to play. Against the Badgers, that's gold in Fort Knox.

At practice Saturday, Xavier coaches stressed playing every possession for 35 seconds. They wanted the Musketeers to be themselves, with a little extra patience thrown in. And oh, yeah, rebound on the defensive end, unless you want Wisconsin to set up and add 35 more seconds of tedium to your day.
 

Think what they'd have to say if Bennett was still around. Bo's boys are a free-wheeling fast break machine in comparison.
