Xavier basketball's going for a Big East win streak Saturday against the Providence Friars

Travis Steele on Xavier's road win Tuesday at DePaul Cincinnati Enquirer

"Bully ball" is the way Xavier University men's basketball head coach Travis Steele described the Musketeers' matchup with Providence on Saturday night (8 p.m. on Fox Sports 1) at Cintas Center.

"It's gonna be probably the most physical game of the year by both teams," Steele said. "We're similar teams. We both play inside-out. We both try to own the paint. Whether that's rebounding, defensively, scoring through the post, drives, being physical around the rim on both ends of the floor. That's what I mean by bully ball.
