VS.OU Golden Grizzlies (Horizon) vs. Xavier Musketeers (Big East)Monday November 27th,2023 6:30pm(ET) Cincinnati, OH Xavier Athletics: goxavier.com/news/2023/11/25/mens-basketball-continues-the-homestand-on-monday-nightMusketeers Fan Forum: www.xavierhoops.com/Hopefully everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend. The Grizz return to the hardwood in what begins a very busy week with 3 games in a six day span and two of which are Horizon games with Detroit-MERCY and Fort Wayne. It begins with a non league game against Xavier. A team coming in at 4-2 with a 100-75 thrashing of what is supposed to be a very solid Bryant team.

Said it on Twitter. Said it on the Horizone Roundtable podcast: I hate this game. Two days before opening conference play with our rival this feels stupid. Xavier is a tough team that always seems to play a bit of bully ball. Tiring the team out before Wednesday’s game for this buy game seems irresponsible. If they couldn’t do it Saturday I wouldn’t have done it. May Oakland stay in it and not get injured.

Not sure why this game was scheduled if it was known that HL play would be starting a few days later. Depth will definitely be tested. Will be interesting to see how much time Townsend gets for a non-conference game.

What a back-cut by Townsend for the flush. Great pass by Buru. Force an X timeout.
31-25 lead with 7:17 to go in the half

Could be he didn't have a choice he did kinda say that in the pregame on YouTube but so far this team continues to impress I hope they keep this up into March

That jump ball that should have been a basket and probably an and-1 may be a pivotal point in this game.
58-53 under 12 timeout

Under 8 media timeout. This is where Oakland has worn down in the other power conference games this year and lost the game. Guys are playing really hard, and Kampe’s going to go with his best players here on out, unless foul trouble causes otherwise. Let’s see how this one goes. Go Grizzlies!
