PC
SHU
Butler
Nova over 1st place DePaul w/ Nova barely covering (the 23 pt spread)

Zip 'em up.

I have a feeling that X leaves with a win and makes this 9 out of the last 11 at Hinkle and 14 out of the last 17 against Butler

Georgetown @ Providence (-2)
Seton Hall @ Creighton (-1.5)
Xavier @ Butler (-2)
DePaul @ Villanova (-21)

Close slate of games we have here... thinking Providence and Villanova hold serve at home and SHU/Xavier steal road wins. SHU-Creighton just a tough matchup... Creighton loves to shoot threes, SHU does a good job defending them and has some size inside. As for X-Butler, I just think Xavier's interior offense is better than Butler's interior defense, Should be a good game of offense vs defense.

I think depaul continues the hot start and plays close but loses by around 10.

Here's hoping Javier's offense is off today

Georgetown @ Providence 12pm
FS1: Tim Brando & Bill Raftery

Seton Hall @ Creighton, 2:15pm
FS1: Dick Stockton and Nick Bahe

DePaul @ Villanova, 4pm
CBSSN: Andrew Catalon & Steve Lappas and Evan Washburn (sideline)

Xavier @ Butler, 4:30pm
FS1: Joe Davis and Tarik Turner


Seton Hall at Creighton, point spread is now a pick. Pre-game starts on FS1 at 11:30am ET.

Nova is favored by 2 dozen against depaul?

That's a ridiculous spread for a conference game. That is going to be tough to cover.
