Big East went undefeated on Saturday.

Florida lost to #24 Butler who shot 45% from 3, and 51% from the field.

Nebraska lost badly to Creighton who also shot super efficient from 3 and 53% from the field.

West Virginia lost to St. John's by a bucket, basically losing this game at the stripe. WVU shot 41%FT, whereas the Red Storm scored 22 points on 27 attempts. It adds up. Otherwise, the Mountaineers shot better from the field, 3, and outrebounded them.

#22 Villanova beat St. Joseph's pretty much in the first half. Frosh Justin Moore is looking to be a stud, coming off the bench as the primary ball handler in the second half and scoring 14 points.

Marquette beat a decent Kansas State team, turning up their defense to take care of business on the road. Jamal Cain had a monster game off the bench with 17 points and 9 rebounds.

Georgetown beat SMU, hitting 51% from 3 and 55% from the field. Jahvon Blair made 7 of 11 from 3-point territory. McClung and Yurtseven each score 19.




Butler is playing well enough right now that they could be projected at a 2 or 3 seed in the dance. I didn't see that coming.

The Big East is looking really solid overall in comparison to other leagues. The Big 10 is only slightly ahead.
