A busy Saturday has nine BIG EAST teams in action with four conference contests and one non-league matchup.
At noon ET, BIG EAST fans can hold on to their clickers and check out Seton Hall battling St. John’s on FOX at Madison Square Garden and Villanova hosting Connecticut on FS1 at Wells Fargo Center. The Pirates, 13-4 overall and atop the BIG EAST standings at 5-0, put their seven-game winning streak on the line against the Johnnies (12-6, 1-4). The two teams have split their last four meetings at MSG. St. John’s won 78-70 last year. Seton Hall’s Myles Powell needs five points to reach 1,000 in his BIG EAST career.
