Every team left in the Big East Tournament will hear its name called on Selection Sunday. Despite that certainty of inclusion, each of the teams has something left to play for. Villanova has a chance to move high enough as a one seed to play in the East region, giving themselves practical home tournament games. Xavier could, with the right combination of unlikely results, sneak onto the one line.
Further down, Providence and Seton Hall are playing for favorable matchups, trying to distance themselves from the 8-9 games. The Pirates battled through a game Creighton team last night, giving up a nine-point halftime advantage before fighting back and taking the win behind Isaiah Whitehead's 24/12/6 and 27 from Khadeen Carrington.
