12:00p ET Lipscomb at Georgetown FSN > NL
1:00p ET USC vs Xavier AXS.tv > X -11.0
2:00p ET Georgia Tech vs St. John's NBCSN SJU -3.0
9:30p ET #23 Iowa vs Villanova NBCSN > Nova +3.0
Maybe it's aggressive but I think 4-0 is likely given the different motivations of each BE team. Go Big East!

Really need to go 4-0 here. Least confident about St. Johns. In a perfect storm, if Villanova wins, they will probably be ranked around 20, Iowa will be knocked out of top 25, Creighton beats GW and falls back to 24. Marquette wins and stays at 25. 3 ranked Big East teams. One can hope right?

I think we go 4-0. Johnnies should bounce back and win this one. I think Creighton might hold on and stay in the top 25. They are definately a top 25 team.

Nova had a tough fought game, played nine guys and 4 starters played over 30 minutes. Iowa had a very easy win, played 14 guys and nobody was even close to playing 30 minutes. On top of that they are playing in warm Bermuda.
It will be a very tough game for Nova today.

Fatigue might cost Nova, but they're better than Iowa. The Hawks have a lot of good players but Nova's also very talented and better coached.

Ochefu played only 9 mins b/c of foul trouble. That should help considering he's nova's only true big.

Georgetown should win convincingly. It looks like JT3 dismissed Greg Whittington from the team today. Good luck to him wherever he lands.

I am hopeful for my squad today but I think that is the most likely "L" today. As XU can attest Iowa is a very good team and it's tough to expend all that energy to beat a Top 5 team without it affecting you. It's a damn shame that XU could not have held on vs Iowa and CU vs SD St. How fun would it have been to have a Big East doubleheader before the conf season even began. Talk about accelerating rivalries if those teams met each other 3 (or even 4) times this year.
