Welcome to The Holy Land of Hoops

Marquette @ Georgetown, 6:30, FS1 - Eric Collins, Dickey Simpkins
Line: Marquette -2/153

Xavier @ Butler, 8:30, FS1 - Noah Eagle, Casey Jacobsen
Line: Xavier -5.5/130

I'd think if I were Georgetown that Marquette this year would be about the last team I'd want to come back against style wise.

Finally, some Xavier basketball!

The flip side of that is that I believe MU is the youngest team in the league. Getting a young team after they had a big win at home, is not a bad spot for G'town to be in IMO. The spread (-2.0) sure seems like a sucker line, which tells me something. Hoping for the league, and for Shaka (whom I really like) that is not the case. But will be interesting to watch either way. Every game is must see this year.

yeah that's a great point. Will be great to just get Georgetown(and then Xavier) basketball back finally.

Xavier game on a Friday night. My wife and I had a sitter and was ready to get a little tipsy prior to the game, but my entire family just tested positive. Very much a sad face today.

Sorry to hear that. Hope you recover quickly.

I like the way Marquette plays ball with Shaka. They remind me of VCU type Shaka.
