I'm kinda surprised Providence is favored over St. John's with St. John's being at home (sort of) and having swept Providence.

I think that's wrong. PC has been 1.5-2.5 point underdogs all week.

unless ESPN has it wrong, I'm seeing Providence as a 1.5 point favorite on their score board.

I am very worried about Providence's matchup with St. Johns. They seem to be a major matchup problem for us, blowing us out last year and in our home game this year, and the game we lost at MSG it wasn't that close for most of it save for a late second half run by us that fell short. So we're 1-3 vs SJU in the last 2 seasons. I just don't like the way we're trending and they're trending and the matchup. It's also a home game for them. That said I expect Friar fans to make themselves known and it to be a good game, I just hope we can compete well and not get into a early hole. I worry about our seed should we lose. I still think we slip from 6 to 7 which isn't the worst thing, but want to avoid 8 seed because of the second round matchup against the 1.
