If Butler is the the 9th best team in the Big East, that conference is fricken loaded.

And it's only the opening weekend of conference play.

Hell of a game, from both teams. Villanova was down 23 in the second half, and have cut it to 6.

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Butler 101-93.

Amazing. Same Butler team that lost to Maryland took two OTs to be Gtown.

Butler is better than DePaul, Georgetown, St. John’s , Providence..
Then they are also probably better than Marquette.
Villanova, Xavier, Seton Hall, Creighton are better though.
Big East is solid this year.

Yup. Good league. It’s frankly been quite good, IMO, since adding Butler, X, Creighton, etc.

Villanova will become the Duke of the North if Wright stays put, no other team on the schedule gets more hype and teams are ready to play them.

Butler was fantastic at home today; they'll lose a handful on the road that will make you scratch your head. Nova won't lose too many this year home or away.

Butler seems to have Nova's number--beat them twice last season.
