Call it a tune up game or a potential trap game, Xavier never wavered in focus and won this one in some style.
You can be forgiven if you sort of tuned out during this one. While there was some concern that Xavier would join their entire fanbase in looking past Wright State to the Shootout this weekend, that was quickly proven not to be the case. In some years this is the kind of game that the Musketeers would have staggered through, won by 12, and moved on. Since the NKU debacle though, Coach Mack has his squad firing on all cylinders regardless of the opponent.
