Scouting report: It should be an intense Big East battle Saturday for Xavier, Seton Hall

Two teams neck and neck in the Big East Conference standings and still fighting to solidify their place in the NCAA Tournament will square off on Saturday afternoon (3:30 p.m., Fox) at Cintas Center.

Those factors should create a highly competitive contest between Xavier and Seton Hall, two teams that have already had a memorable battle this season, won by the Pirates, 73-71.

Xavier's looking to end a three-game losing streak, and coming off an emotional triple-overtime loss on Wednesday at Providence, the Musketeers have a lot of positives to pull from that game, but they can't get hung up on the fact that they lost.
