Mo Egger of ESPN 1530 and The Athletic Cincinnati joins Reags for the episode to preview the biggest basketball weekend arguably ever in the city of Cincinnati. On Saturday the Big East regular season title is essentially up for grabs as Villanova comes to town to play Xavier. Then on Sunday, Cincinnati gets a chance for a marquee victory over Wichita State in the first matchup of the season for the two programs. 

They start the podcast talking about the Bearcats, who just suffered a loss at Houston, snapping a 16-game win streak. In the game, the offense got stuck in the mud, what feels off with the offense this year? 

After that they get to Xavier and why it's okay to consider the Musketeers lucky this year. What's the one thing to keep an eye on in order for Xavier to beat Villanova for just the second time since the new Big East started?
