Make no mistake about it, Florida St is tough. This is the best team that Xavier will have played since all the way back in the Big East tournament. The Seminoles are big, they are fast, they are athletic, and they want to dunk and throw shots and do all the things that big athletic guys like to do. There is no way to look at the footage of them physically dominating FGCU and not be a little bit concerned about tonight’s game. These guys can flat out play.
But there’s no reason for Xavier fans to descend into a pit of despair just yet.
