Xavier at St. Joseph's

Xavier has won 11 straight and get a struggling Saint Joe's team here. The Hawks have lost five of their last seven. The big difference is, of course, defense. Xavier has held conference foes to 61.7 ppg while St. Joe's is allowing 72.2 per game. That's a monster difference and will play out here tonight. It's the main reason Xavier is 13-1 in conference play while Joe's is just 8-6. Yet we have to lay a very small line here. Take the Muskateers as they will roll.
