Missouri at Xavier

Missouri heads out on the road and the Tigers are 9-24-2 ATS in their last 35 road games. Mizzou is 2-0 but 16-33-3 ATS following a victory and 17-37-3 ATS away against a team with a winning home record. They take on a very strong Xavier squad that has made nine of the last 10 NCAA Tournaments, one of only 11 schools that have at least nine in that stretch, including five NCAA Sweet 16s in the last eight years. The Musketeers are 4-1 ATS in non-conference games, plus 4-1 ATS against the SEC. Xavier used a 10-0 second-half run to pull away on its way to an 81-72 win over Miami (Ohio) on Friday. This is a young, talented team as redshirt freshman Edmond Sumner led Xavier with 19 points in his first collegiate start while sophomore Trevon Bluiett is the team's leading returning scorer. Xavier junior Jalen Reynolds is a preseason Big East First Team pick and had 16 points, 15 rebounds against Miami. Xavier is 15-5 against current SEC schools since 2008, including a 2015 NCAA win over Ole Miss. The Musketeers are also a sizzling 33-16 ATS at home. Lay the points on Xavier.
