Xavier Musketeers
Xavier had a tremendous finish to the Big East regular season with wins vs. Creighton, vs. Villanova, at Providence, at Seton Hall, and both vs. and at St. John’s (x2). In that span, the Muskys only lost at Butler by five points.
The fact that a team could make a run like that at the end of the conference regular season and not even appear on Joe Lunardi’s bubble is a true indication of how badly the season started.

Naji Marshall and Paul Scruggs, both sophomores, are scoring over 27 points per game as the leading duo but Marshall’s 29 percent 3-point shooting on over five attempts per game has to improve.
He missed Xavier’s season finale against St. John’s and is questionable for this one.
Creighton Blue Jays
Creighton’s last gasp winning streak has made it possible to even think of an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. The Jays finished the regular season with five wins in a row, including an absolutely necessary upset at Marquette.
That, all the rest, and this game on Thursday were all, and are, necessary if Creighton is going to get into the Big Dance. Even if it wins this game, Greg McDermott should feel far from safe that his team will get in. It might take an upset of Villanova in the semifinals.

The Jays are capable, not just of winning this game, but of beating Villanova because their defense is finally playing at an acceptable level, along with its high-flying offense.
The defense held Marquette to just 60 points in Milwaukee and the opponent in three of the other four games to 70 or fewer.
