Anyone see the answer to the trivia question on tonight's broadcast? The question was: who is the only team that Xavier has lost to at home while Xavier was in the Top 25?

Assuming it's Miami because that's who they were playing tonight but I don't know what year or if it's them for sure.

I don't know which ranking they used for this, but last year Xavier lost to Tennessee while they were ranked 25 in the ESPN/USA today poll. I'm pretty sure they were unranked in the AP poll though.

I want to say Southern Utah in 89 or Richmond in 03.

I think it was in 71' when we were upset by Northern KY State. Oh,wait a second I think we weren't in the top 25 that year.

I had to look it up in the media guide.
Q, we dropped out of the AP poll last season after the ASU game.

I was wrong on two counts regarding Southern Utah. First it was the 90 season and while I thought we might have been ranked pre-season, we weren't. However, I thought we were in the top 30 and might have 24th or 25th, so that is why I guessed it was a triva answer. I was up there from Texas for that game and always thought it was one of the worst losses for X. (BTW, the OSU game is #1 on my list.)

However, it was Richmond in 03. We lost in Cintas to them after losing to Bama. We were soon out of the AP poll. We then beat UR there a month later.

It's either Tennessee last year or UC the year D-West rolled his ankle in the first half of the crosstown...
