The Xavier Musketeers will open the Big East Tounament against 18-13 Butler, who had a much better year than expected. Xavier had to go the entire season without Zach Freemantle, and it certainly hurt this team. Butler slowed the pace down late in the season as they closed with seven straight games UNDER the total, and their shooting has been poor as they shot 43% or less in six of seven. I think the defense shows up here as the loser likely shuts it down for the season. Make the play on the UNDER.
