Point Spread: -16.50 | -110.00 Xavier (Home)
Result: Loss
The Xavier Musketeers are stacked this season. They added plenty of depth and will have Nate Johnson back after missing the end of last season with a leg injury. He averaged nearly 12 points and 5 rebounds per game and was their best shooter with a 45.2% from beyond the three-point line. Also, transfer Jack Nuge is expected to make a big impact on an expanded role after averaging 7.1 points and 5.3 rebounds per game at Iowa. Look for Xavier to win in a blowout fashion.
