is it even thinkable that X could pull off the upset.

Go BJ Raymond
Derick Brown is a man-beast himself, completely outplaying Blair
X 37-29. For the first half, they were definitely the better team
This certainly could be Derrick Brown's coming out party. As a Junior, I see him following in Tyrone Hill, David West, and James Posey as X forwards that become NBA mainstays
Xavier is playing marvelous tonight. I definitely see them getting the upset.
I'm hopeful, but we still have an entire half to go. Pitt will be tough, but X has the athletes and the style that will give Pitt fits and make this game a challenge for Pitt to win
Just like I said, It would be a stretch to think to hold Pitt down, but the good thing is, X has not had a run, which they are very capable of
If I'm X, I give the ball to BJ Raymond everytime down the floor. Pitt can not match up with him. Too big for their guards, too fast for their forwards
^That's what I would do to Stardust.
Pitt by 1 now. 48-47 5:40.
Blair gets his double-double 10pts. 16rebs.
Two quick fouls on Fields.
52-50 Pitt. 4:09 to go.
Raymond hits both at the free throw line. It's tied. 52 a piece.
X leads 54-52. 1:20 left to go.
Fields for 3. 55-54 Pitt.
Steal by Fields. 57-54 Pitt.
Man that 3 was CRAZY!
What finish by Fields
Foul on Blair. Bonus for Xavier. Holloway gets 1 from the line. 57-55 Pitt. 13.2 to go in the game.
Young makes 2 from the line. 59-55 Pitt.
Hats off to Pitt, great comeback
Pitt does not do it pretty, but they do it
Pittsburgh wins 60-55.
