Top 5 Big East teams haven’t lost at home yet. Don’t think that’s changing today.

The top 5 team that snags a top 5 road win is gonna have a big edge in the race for the regular season championship, just because it's gonna be such a rare event.

Oh it’ll happen, but it will probably be DePaul or Georgetown pulling a crazy ass upset over one of the top 5 on a night when the home team is looking ahead.

Yeah St John’s, Nova and Butler and might as well throw Creighton into the group that are all capable of ruining any of the 4 ranked teams’ rankings!!

Johnnies first win at UCONN since….

1988?!?!? did I hear that correct?

Congratulations on the beat down STJ

Took Xavier a half to kinda figure Marquette out. Kolek absolutely carved Xavier's defense up in the first half.

MU is a well-oiled machine on offense.

Xavier held MU to 35% from the field in the second half though, including 1-12 from three.
X dominated on the glass and Boum was clutch again down the stretch.

Got to protect home court in this league, because road wins are near impossible.
