6:30pm EDT: SJU @ PC, FS1, Providence -8.0
7:00pm EDT: CU @ GTown, Fox Sports MW, Creighton -2.0
8:30pm EDT: Butler @ SHU, FS1, Butler -2.0

KenPom:
#16 Butler 73 @ #54 Seton Hall 70 (39.0%)
#18 Creighton 83 @ #70 Georgetown 77 (31.0%)
#109 St. John's 68 @ #60 Providence 76 (77.0%)

Worth noting that Butler @ SHU and Creighton @ Georgetown are the 2nd-highest and 3rd-highest games, respectively, by "Thrill Score" this evening. For those unfamiliar with that term, they are essentially the 2nd-most and 3rd-most exciting games -- statistically -- of the evening. UCLA @ USC has the top spot.

I have a feeling the home teams win all three.

Anyone going to the PC game?

Another must win at home for the Hall. It's their 1st home game against a "top 4" team and (assuming 4 road losses) they need a minimum of 2 wins at home to have any tourney hopes. Starting 0-1 would make that an extremely tall task. Butler's had SHU's number in the regular season so far, so hopefully that means the Pirates are due to win one. Or maybe we can just play this game at MSG instead?

This game will tell us a lot more where Creighton is at. MU was coming in trying to get that statement win and smelled blood in the water. After last night, they are obviously a lot better than we thought. Creighton did not spend ANY time on the MU scouting report as they were trying to figure out the offense, which is partly why the defense played so poorly.

Also interested to see how Mintz plays on the road. He had 17 points, 8 assists, and 4 rebounds last game. And we still scored 94 points. If we can do that a second game in a row, on the road, it changes the outlook considerably.

I'll be at the Creighton game tonight. Excited to see us play in person again (my only other game being at home against Truman State). Hoping that Mintz gained some confidence from the first game and will be able to execute on the road. Georgetown has been awful as of late, and I'm expecting that the Jays get the win here. Need this one, and at home against DePaul, to have any real chance at maintaining pace in the conference race.
