So...how’s that for a Big East start? How are the 57% of you who weren’t happy with this team feeling now? Of course, everyone is feeling great at this moment. Even faced with the coaching brilliance of Ed Cooley, Xavier jumped on Providence early and never looked back. It was 10-7 early in the first half, and then it was 20-7. The Friars splashed a bit, but then the undertow took them and they were never seen again. The big difference between this game and the Eastern Washington win eight days ago is that this one counts in conference, it certainly wasn’t in level of competition provided.
