What to watch for when #1 Villanova travels to #5 Xavier

There hasn't been a Big East game with this much hype since Doug McDermott was donning the Creighton blue and white, and Wednesday's game clash between Villanova and Xavier at the Cintas Center will surpass any of the hoopla that he ever created.

#1 Villanova is in Cincinnati looking to clinch at least a share of their third straight Big Eat regular season title, while the Musketeers just joined the Top 5 in the latest polls. If that wasn't enough, Xavier will be looking for revenge after they were humiliated in Philadelphia on New Year's Eve by Villanova.
