Free Xavier Musketeers vs. Butler Bulldogs NCAAB Prediction:
These two teams match up pretty evenly when it comes to numbers. The Bulldogs have been shooting the ball a little better and have been to play stronger defense, but the Musketeers pass the ball a little more and are the better rebounding team.
4* Free CBB Betting Pick: Butler
I like the Bulldogs in this one due to the simple fact that they will be playing on their own court. I think they will do enough on the perimeter to come away with the win.
