Adam: Xavier wins 85-73
The Deacs' defense just has not been good at all this year. The Deacs have been able to survive the last 2 games, but against a top 10 opponent, the lack of defense will be a problem. As Manning said, if we continue to play the way we have on defense, we'll lose by 100. We obviously won't lose by that much, but I don't see anything changing against Xavier, and the Musketeers will likely shoot 50% or better for the game.

Wake comes out flat against a team with the talent and potential to make a Final Four run.
