NCAAB Handicapping: Butler vs. Xavier (Dec. 23)

NCAAB Betting Upset Butler @ Xavier

BetUS NCAA Basketball Sports Betting Odds: XAVIER -7.5

Xavier played great defense in winning its Crosstown Shootout with Cincinnati, but then came back a week later and fumbled around in what was its biggest test of the season. In this case, the loss was a bitter one, as they fell behind 22-3 to Duke and could never quite recover as the Blue Devils hit 52.5% of its shots on the way to an 82-64 rout. Nonetheless, Xavier has put together a decent resume with wins over Virginia Tech and Memphis. Derrick Brown leads the way with 14.4 points a game, and no less than six members of the Musketeers have pulled down at least four rebounds a game.
