Xavier at St. John's

The Xavier Musketeers are 19-3 and have played solid basketball all season long. They certainly look like a team that can simply roll over a St. John's team that is just 10-12 on the season. St. John's no longer looks like a Big East team, and a testament to that is their 0-10 conference record. The Red Storm, however, gave Xavier fits on the road before losing by just six points. St. John's may have no wins in the conference, but in addition to the close loss at Xavier, the Red Storm lost by just five points at Seton Hall, and seven at Creighton. Moreover, they lost to #1 Villanova by just seven points at the Garden, and lost here to Creighton by five. St. John's will keep this one interesting down to the wire. Make the play on St. John's.
