When it comes to the NCAA Tournament, you won’t find many teams which can cover a point spread like Xavier.

The Musketeers are an eye-popping 20-3-1 against the spread in their past 24 March Madness games, including Ws in both contests this tournament.

Of course, each year is different. Rosters change, opponents are different, etc. But it’s still an impressive feat.

Seeded 6th in the West, the Musketeers face No. 2 Arizona in a Sweet 16 game Thursday. The Wildcats opened as 9-point favorites and it has since moved to 11.

Being a double-digit seed has suited the Wildcats well lately – they are 11-3 against the spread in their past 14 games when favored by 10 or more. Xavier has yet to be a double-digit underdog this season.
