The Sun’s Arizin: The Big East Is Back For Villanova Basketball

Happy Game Day Nova Nation! It’s time to close the book on the non-conference (just notch the corner of the page for that pesky late year Temple game) and turn our attention to the Big East. The Big East is always a gauntlet, but this season may be even more challenging than it has been in recent years. Just ask our good pal Jon Rothstein.

The Big East is now 89-24 as a conference. 10 teams have winning percentages of 70% or better. No team is under .500. Barring cannibalization, seven NCAA bids feels like an attainable goal.
