Something’s got to give Saturday night at the Cintas Center.

A quick look at both the Providence Friars and the Xavier Musketeers show two teams that mirror one another. Both are stocked with veterans, both are desperate for wins and both prefer to emerge as the toughest team on the block.

Consider what the coaches of the Friars (6-4 Big East) and Musketeers (4-6) have to say going into the game.

“We’re going to have our hands full. Providence is playing really, really well right now,” said Xavier coach Travis Steele.
