SATURDAY:
DePaul (0-3) @ Georgetown (2-1) Noon FS1(kenpom 82% chance of GTown win)
Creighton (2-1) @ Seton Hall (2-1) 2PM FS1 (72% chance of SHU win)
St. John's (0-3) @ Marquette (1-2) 2PM FSN (88% chance of Marq win)

Most interesting game on Saturday is Creighton at the Hall. Both teams started 2-1 with losses to Villanova. Which team will trend up and which one down? The Whitehead vs. Watson PG match-up should be fun to watch. Will Groselle take the SHU front line to the cleaners the way Ochefu did. St. John's could surprise if Marq suffers the kind of let down that teams with young guards can have - doubt it though. Georgetown drew a particularly easy start to their BE schedule - @DeP, Marq, @Creigh, DePaul, @SJU ... anything less than 4-1 is a disappointment for the Hoyas.

SUNDAY:
Villanova (3-0) @ Butler (1-2) 7:30PM FS1 (67% chance of VU win)

This game should be fun. The two previous match-ups at Hinkle were instant classics. Expecting more of the same on Sunday night!
