Villanova National Championships Today Game: NCAA Men’s Basketball Villanova Leads<\/span><\/h2>\n

No. 8 Xavier faces No. 9 Butler in the opening game of the 2022 Big East Men’s Basketball Tournament on Wednesday at Madison Square Garden.<\/p>\n

Each of the first-round bye-eligible teams \u2014 Providence, Villanova, Connecticut, Creighton, and Marquette \u2014 will not play until Thursday in the quarterfinal round.<\/p>\n

With Villanova, Providence, and UConn, this year’s Big East tournament has three of the best teams in America competing against each other.<\/p>\n

However, despite defeating Providence twice in the regular season, Villanova was not seeded No. 1. As a result of their first-ever Big East regular season championship, the Friars were given this honour.<\/p>\n

\"BIG<\/p>\n

UConn climbed the Big East standings with a 6-2 record in their last eight games, which earned them the No. 3 seed in the conference tournament. However, Seton Hall, the No. 6 seed in the Big East tournament, is the most hotly anticipated team. After five straight wins, the Pirates are guaranteed to face UConn in the quarterfinals. Georgetown, a potential first-round opponent for Seton Hall, is winless in 20 games overall and 0-19 in the Big East.<\/p>\n

The top three seeds in this tournament are all fairly evenly distributed. According to the odds, Villanova (+163), UConn (+333) or Providence (+1500) are likely to win this year’s tournament at the World’s Most Famous Arena.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
