The Big East title is unofficially on the line as both Villanova and Xavier play their toughest remaining games of the regular season in a double-header on FS1. Xavier starts off the evening with a one-game lead in the loss column, and will host Providence in Cincinnati.
A win there would leave the Musketeers with only a trip to DePaul in their way of claiming their first Big East regular season championship.
Meanwhile, Villanova heads to Seton Hall in a must-win game not only to stay alive in the Big East race, but to preserve their hold on a #1 seed for the NCAA Tournament.
