Andrew Chrabascz set to return!

I'm expecting two great games. Butler and G'Town have split so far (played in Bahamas) and both were good games.

With two potential #1 seeds losing last week (UW and Gonzaga), I just have a feeling Nova might stub their toe tonight.

It would be great for Villanova to win tonight and keep rolling and get the Big East a #1 seed.
Incredible year for the Big East, as it looks like 60% of the league could get NCAA bids. A few wins, and that is a lot of tourney credits for the league. Hopefully we will be back earning them next season.

Creighton 30 Villanova 29 at halftime

Anyone think Smith-Rivera came in from out of bounds without establishing himself on that steal? Watched it three times and thought he had a foot on the end line just before he poked the ball away without fully getting both feet back in.

I never thought of that. I was thinking some thought it was a foul.

Great game, Creighton playing very well and making 3's. Big East is quite a conference.

Nova prevails.
