Basketball NCAABB teams to watch tonight: 2/16

UConn looks good.
St. John’s looks good.
Seton Hall looks good.
Xavier has the gaudy record.
Creighton just beat Nova.
Nova is Nova.

I guess the question is how many Big East schools get in? All look decent.

The fact that UConn is in 4th place in the Big East playing for most of the season without their best player is yet another sign of the downturn of the Big East. UConn finished 5th in the AAC last year with a 10-8 record. I dont think they deserve more than 4 teams.
 
Watched the Big East several times this year. The glaring weakness of that conference is defensive intensity - just not close to what you see in the B1G on a nightly basis - lots of easy shots in every game I have watched.
 
SHU plays defense. St. Johns presses. UConn plays decent D. I don't think they are that bad.
