Despite suffering a loss on the road earlier on Saturday to Seton Hall, the Villanova Wildcats are once again the Big East regular season champions following Georgetown’s stunning upset at Marquette.
Villanova finished atop the Big East standings at 13-5 in conference play, and has locked down the #1 seed for next week’s Big East Tournament in the process. They will play Wednesday’s 7-10 winner on Thursday at 12pm ET.
The rest of the Big East standings are still in flux, so we won’t know that 7-10 matchup until Xavier-St. John’s and DePaul-Creighton are finished playing.
