The season is still young, but there's a graduate-level test with postseason implications on Friday night for Xavier's men's basketball team when No. 12 Indiana visits Cintas Center as part of the annual Gavitt Tipoff Games.
The Hoosiers (2-0) were picked to win the Big Ten Conference in the preseason media poll.
Indiana's led by an All-American and Big Ten player of the year candidate Trayce Jackson-Davis.
Everything Indiana does and wants to do orbits around the 6-foot-9 forward.
If Xavier wants any shot at winning this game, the Musketeers have to match up and make life as tough as possible on Jackson-Davis.
