All 10 BIG EAST teams have only two or three games remaining in regular-season play, so this weekend’s contests hold plenty of importance with the BIG EAST Tournament less than two weeks away.
First-place Villanova hosts third-place Creighton at The Pavilion with the FOX broadcast network on hand for a 3 p.m. ET tipoff. The Wildcats, 13-3 in the league standings, can clinch their fourth straight outright title with a win. Creighton is 9-6 in the BIG EAST and 10-2 overall away from home.
Marquette and Providence, two teams in a crowded middle of the standings, play at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center at 4 p.
