Eight games into the Big East season, the standings are starting to take shape.
With just one league loss, Villanova is again at the top looking for its third consecutive regular-season championship, while rebuilding St. John's sits alone, winless at the bottom.
At 11 a.m. Saturday, the two teams tied for eighth will take the floor at the BMO Harris Bradley Center as Marquette (14-7, 3-5) hosts Butler (14-6, 3-5). While the Golden Eagles and Bulldogs have similar records, the makeup of their teams and road to this point haven't been close to identical.
Marquette's story is well-known around Milwaukee.
