X up 21-8 at Providence. Muskies looking strong. Friars made 2/17 field goals.

In the Xavier@Providence game, the refs aren't calling much at all. What's the bet that they start calling a bunch in the second half? I've seen that flip flopping way too often this season.

And one that stands out to me is that I'm shocked Boum didn't get called for a tripping foul earlier.

Pretty sure Colby's defender committed a body foul there when Cooley earned the T...but the refs didn't call a similar transition opportunity on the other side where it looked like Edwards committed a body foul. The real surprising foul was the one just before on Carter for holding Nunge on a lob. Maybe? I just didn't see it.

Edit: Saw the replay, Jones went into the guy and it wasn't a foul.

After Cooley's technical, Providence got a very friendly whistle and Xavier basically had their whole lineup in foul trouble (Cooley knew exactly what he was doing with that technical). They just couldn't stop Boum+Jones at all, tonight.

Good game, high intensity. Xavier shot 179% from the field in the second half.

Big win for Xavier. Officiating was pretty brutal- made it hard to watch. Zero consistency.

You guys have a great environment there.

We were fortunate to catch you on a slow start.
