Even though there are no rankings next to their opponents’ names this week, the Wildcats will still have two tough tests in Philadelphia against two of their most historic rivals.
The mini rivalry week starts on Saturday night, where a date with the St. John’s Red Storm awaits the Wildcats at Wells Fargo Center.
The Red Storm have been struggling mightily as of late. Its most recent home loss at Madison Square Garden was by 33 points to Butler, another struggling Big East team.
In their last meeting against the Red Storm, junior Josh Hart and the Wildcats took care of business, winning in convincing fashion by 15 points in the Garden.
