Prediction Time - Xavier 2

[Phantom Warrior]

Xavier - 84; MU - 76

With Blueitt back XU is obviously a much better team than the one we beat at the BC. The Musketeers are one of the better rebounding teams in the BE.

I am guessing that Macura has a much better night than he had last time the teams played. He's a good player who had to play point for major minutes against us, which is certainly not his position. Plus, with Blueitt out he had to be the main man on offense. He's better as a 2 or a 3 when he is the second or third option on offense, not the first.

Gaston has been playing well for the most part the past several games. He is very athletic for his size and very aggressive. He is, outside of Delgado, the most efficient rebounder in the conference.

Big Question for Tonight: How many minutes will Luke play before fouling out? Over the last three games he is averaging one foul per two and a half minutes.

Game isn't until tomorrow.

Blueitt is good, but they aren't the same without Sumner. Xavier's slide continues for one more game.

Marquette 80-75 Xavier

I think this one gets ugly. 92-77 Xavier.

X by 12 as their big men eat

Think we are a pretty good team that is due a couple of breaks. MU 77, X 75 in a tight, well played game.

MU will need 85 points to win this one, and I think we get it done, 85-79.

MU will need 85 points to win this one, ...

No they won't

... and I think we get it done, 85-79.

They only need 80!
