    I am a Alabama fan and see no way they cover this 10 point spread. Not a huge college basketball fan but do watch and bet on it. Someone please tell me what I'm missing with this line. If Dayton can beat them by almost 40 I don't think Xavier will have a problem covering 10.

    It was at home for Dayton but this Bama team is really bad. New coach with little talent. He has some talent coming in next year hopefully but lost a lot from last years team and don't see this team winning many games. Think they get blown out a lot especially by much better teams.

    Under new head coach Avery Johnson, Alabama is still an enigma to me.  They are a team I expect to improve game-by-game, and I think they've done that thus far.  That said, they looked completely outmanned by Dayton.  Avery wants to play up-tempo, and while I expect a better showing against Xavier, I think ultimately Alabama Xavier's superiority will take over.  I would be mildly surprised if Alabama could keep this game within DD.  The wildcard here is that Alabama shot 60% (15 for 25) from behind the arc against Louisiana-Lafayette, and according to coach Johnson, Alabama will shoot a lot of 3s again today.  If they can shoot at that type of blistering pace from behind the arc against Xavier, they may be able to keep things interesting.

    I'm not sure if I'll make a play on this game or not, but if I do, I'll probably play OVER 148.5.

    Agree w/ the Dayton reference-home court or not, Xavier would never lose to Dayton by32 anywhere,anytime. Bama shot 29% in that game, and w/ 6 days off, I don't expect them to be sharp enough to stay  within DD today.Musketeer defense too quick.

    It was Bama's second game of the year against an opponent that is always underrated, what did you expect? New coach, some new players and new system. Dayton is a pretty good team with a lot of athleticism and usually a NCAA tourney team. They made a good run last year in the tournament if i recall. Bama looked way better in their last game. Dont underestimate this Alabama team. I think they will turn heads once they learn to play together. Xavier is always a very solid team. I would probably go with them because of experience but it wouldnt surprise me if Alabama stayed within the number. BOL

    I'm going to lay off.  I may make a 2nd half play.
