Butler Bulldogs vs Xavier Musketeers 3/9/2022 Picks Predictions Previews

The Butler Bulldogs will go against the Xavier Musketeers in a Big East Conference First Round clash in Madison Square Garden, NY, on Wednesday, March 9, 2022, at 4:30 PM (EST). This season is a roller coaster for the Butler Bulldogs. They were unstoppable in some matches and appeared to lose in others.

In this conference tournament, they are the ninth seed. The Bulldogs produced 63.1 points per game and shot 41.8 percent from the field on offense.

This is the country’s 296th lowest shooting percentage. When they have pressure in their faces, they have a hard time making shots. The Bulldogs have the 179th most efficient offense, according to KenPom.

They’ll try to score inside the paint by attacking the hoop. This season, they struggled from behind the arc. They are just completing 31% of their deep ball attempts. This year, they did not have much luck shooting the ball from distance.

In addition, the Bulldogs are generating only 11.1 assists per game as a team. They don’t move the ball around enough to allow the opposition defense to spread out. On the offensive end of the court, they would have greater success if they could swing the ball around the perimeter and find cutting or passing lanes.

This year, Butler underperformed at the free-throw line. Only 69.5 percent of their attempted shots in the charity stripe are converted. This made it difficult to remain in games throughout the year. If they hope to upset the Musketeers in the first round, they can’t waste these points.

The University of Butler Bulldogs is 6-2 ATS in their last 8 matches.
