Gordon Hayward had 19 points and 10 rebounds while Willie Veasley added 12 points for the Bulldogs (10-1), who have won two straight.
Derrick Brown had 17 points and eight boards while C.J. Anderson had 15 points for the Musketeers (9-2), who have dropped their last two games.
Holding a lead to start the second half, Butler built on its advantage with six straight points and Shelvin Mack's jumper made it a 44-36 game.
Trailing by seven points later in the second half, Xavier scored six straight points with Terrell Holloway getting the final three on a layup and free throw to make it a 53-52 game with a bit over eight minutes to play.
Butler, though, answered with a three-pointer from Hayward followed a bit later with a free throw from Ronald Nored to make it a 57-52 contest with 6 1/2 minutes to play.
Holloway was fouled as he put in a layup and he drained the free throw to cut the deficit to 61-57, but Nored followed with a layup to keep it a six-point game with a bit over four minutes to play.
Brown, though, countered with a three-pointer, but Butler then hit five straight free throws and held a 68-60 lead on Hayward's two from the line with under three minutes to play.
Two free throws from Anderson and a three-pointer by Brown made it a three- point game again with two minutes to play, but the Butler defense clamped down and didn't allow Xavier any more points as the Bulldogs held on for the win.
Butler assumed early command of the game with an 8-0 run in the opening minutes of the contest.
It stayed close for the next several minutes, but Xavier got a layup from Anderson followed by a three-pointer from Brad Redford for a 26-24 advantage with a little over two minutes left in the first half.
The Bulldogs, though, countered with a three-ball from Nored and a jumper by Shawn Vanzant to take a 29-26 lead into the locker room.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
