Xavier Musketeers Betting Preview

Xavier led 29-19 at halftime, but they allowed 43 points in the second half and barely got the win.

Le Moyne vs Xavier Prediction 

Both of these teams come into this matchup with a 1-0 record to start the season, but Le Moyne played a non-D1 team and Xavier barely escaped against Marist. We will learn a lot more about Le Moyne in this matchup, but I am curious to see how Xavier plays. The Musketeers had a nice lead at halftime in their first game, but they fell apart and did not shoot the ball very well. I do expect a better effort from Xavier in this game, but I am not willing to lay this many points with a team that almost collapsed last time out. Take Le Moyne and the points here.
