Bill Murray is having one heck of a sports year.

Not only did his beloved Chicago Cubs finally break their curse by winning a World Series, but his Xavier basketball team is in the Elite Eight after upsetting Arizona Thursday night, 73-71.

Why does Murray like Xavier? His son, Luke, is an assistant coach on their staff.

Xavier will face Gonzaga on Saturday for a chance to go to the Final Four. This is certainly a much better result for Bill than last year.
