(NCAAB) Xavier vs. DePaul, 01/19/2022 9:00 PM, Score: 68 - 67
Point Spread: -6.00 | -110.00 Xavier (Away)
Result: Loss
This one is going to be a good test for Xavier after seeing how DePaul took care of business against Seton Hall at home in their last game but I think that was a fluke. The Blue Demons were stellar at the free throw line as they cashed in 80% of their attempts against the Pirates, well above their 67.6% mark for the season entering Friday’s game. You have to think that Travis Steele’s group is veteran Xavier team who will play tough defense and physical.
Look for Xavier to get a double digit victory in this contest to make it back-to-back wins.
