Xavier @ St Joe's

[sbg20307]

this game seems like a big trap.

besides already clinching the a10 and being on the road, what am i missing about xavier here?

ST joes looks solid, Im thinking about playing them now.

Its on national TV and they are at home, they need this win to make the tourney.

Xavier has escaped alot of close calls.

Acutally im going to play st joes 1st half

I am on St Joe +2 and also going to go with the under after looking at this game a little more...senior night and national TV.

I like St joes in this one.

I'm passing on this one. St.Joe's looks like the pick, but then again this team lost to friggin St.Louis at home.

Xavier is clearly the better team but I wouldn't be surprised if St Joseph's pulled the upset.

Love St. Joe's tonight. From the parlay of the day thread:

St. Joe's +1.5
X playing for seeding, Joe's playing for its tourney life. Joe's matches up better with X than any team in the league - they have a PG in Carr that can put defensive pressure on Lavender, and in Ahmad Nivins they have an inside force to make make Duncan work on the defensive end. 3 disappointing losses in their L4 has left Joe's in dire need of a win if they're to have any hope of an at-large bid, and the Hawks led until the final minute at Xavier despite only getting 15 min. from Nivins as a result of foul trouble. Xavier's had many close encounters on the road in conf. play, and I think this is a spot they won't survive.

This is that time of the year where hometeams always upset rank teams on paper that seems unbeatable. ST.Joe desperately need this win and should steal this one.

I hope the majority on this blog is wrong. I have Xavier -3 1/2
