So in the past 24-25 years or so, what was once a 34 game gap in the overall series is now down to a 15 game gap.
UD fans can still hang their hat on the overall series for another 8-10 years and then what ??

superb detective work muskieman. i didnt realize the stats were that lopsided in recent years. I don't think we have to worry about them passing us as a program. Our recent NCAA tourney success vs theirs is proof enough.

Oh they passed us as a program. In the 60s they were great against us but then back then my jump shot was good too.

While Xavier was climbing the ladder dayton came down the ladder of success.
