Xavier vs Ohio State game preview

The Xavier Musketeers (2-0) return to the Gavitt Games for the first time since the 2018-19 season Thursday night against the in-state foe #19 Ohio State Buckeyes (3-0).

After winning the first four games of this year’s Gavitt Tipoff, the Big East dropped both games Wednesday night. Xavier will try to get the conference back on track.

Without Zach Freemantle to start the season, Paul Scruggs has led the way for the Musketeers. The veteran guard has averaged a team-high 20 points and 4.5 assists per game, showing why he was picked to the preseason All-Big East First Team.
