8:00 PM CREIGHTON at Villanova Villanova, Pa. (CBS Sports Network) 87% chance of 'Nova win per kenpom
8:30 PM MARQUETTE at Seton Hall Newark, N.J. (Fox Sports 1) 85% SHU
6:30 PM ST JOHNS at Xavier Cincinnati, OH (Fox Sports 1) 98% Xavier
With Ochefu out, the Creighton game can get a little interesting for 'Nova. Gang rebounding and a good shooting effort will be needed to grab anything close to the 12 point margin projected by kenpom. The Brunson, Booth, Arcidiacono group needs to begin to pick up the pace.
Surging Marquette could conceivably get to .500 in league play and a three-way tie for fifth place with a big road win at Seton Hall tonight. Both teams are young and improving. Marq will look to avenge a 20 point, home drubbing to SHU in the league opener for both teams back in December.
St. John's will look to avoid another embarrassment. Losing by anything less than 15 would be an accomplishment for the Red Storm playing at X.
