Texas A&M-CC Islanders vs. Xavier Musketeers Prediction

I’m on Texas A&M-CC and the points here. I just don’t think all that highly of Xavier this season as I think the Musketeers are a bottom tier team in the Big East. We’ve also seen Xavier have tight games against Marist and Le Moyne early on in the year and battled Georgia and West Virginia hard just last weekend. I think the Islanders could put a scare into Xavier here so give me the Islanders and the points.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Texas A&M-CC +15.5
