What to Know

The #12 Indiana Hoosiers have enjoyed the comforts of home their last two games, but now they must head out on the road. They will square off against the Xavier Musketeers at 6 p.m. ET Friday at Cintas Center. These two teams seek to continue their momentum from their previous wins.

The Hoosiers took their matchup at home last week with ease, bagging a 101-49 win over the Bethune-Cookman Wildcats. Among those leading the charge for IU was forward Trayce Jackson-Davis, who had 21 points along with six rebounds.

Meanwhile, Xavier strolled past the Fairfield Stags with points to spare on Tuesday, taking the game 78-65. Four players on the Musketeers scored in the double digits: forward Jack Nunge (23), guard Adam Kunkel (21), forward Zach Freemantle (15), and guard Souley Boum (11). That's Zach Freemantle's first triple-double of the season.

Barring any buzzer beaters, IU is expected to win a tight contest. They have been consistent moneymakers against the spread when favored (2-0), so they might be worth a quick bet.

The wins brought IU up to 2-0 and Xavier to 3-0. Two last-season offensive stats to keep an eye on: The Hoosiers enter the contest with a 45.40% field goal percentage, good for third best in college basketball. The Musketeers displayed some offensive firepower of their own as they come into the matchup boasting the seventh highest field goal percentage in college basketball at 45.10%. This one is shaping up to be an exciting offensive shootout.
