Pregame Primer: Returning Home, Creighton Set to Take On Aggressive St. John’s on Saturday Night

Entering this weekend, eight games remain for each team in the Big East. Seton Hall is 9-1 and plays Saturday at second-place Villanova, who enters that game 7-3. Butler, Creighton, Marquette and Providence are tied for third at 6-4. Xavier is seventh at 4-6. Georgetown is eighth at 3-7. And the Jays’ next opponent, St. John’s, is in ninth place at 2-8.

Creighton is the only team in the Big East with five home games remaining, and according to Ken Pomeroy has 55% or better odds of winning in six of their final eight games — road games at Seton Hall and at Marquette being the only exceptions.
