Providence Friars 76 (17-9) #3 Villanova Wildcats 71 (23-3) It's pretty hard to figure out who this Providence team is on a game to game basis. They get blown out by lowly DePaul at home and then come right back and beat the #3 team in the Nation the very next game. It's not really …

Providence Friars 64 #25 Creighton Bluejays 83 Well that was certainly a downer of a game after a magnificent team performance at St. John's.

Providence Friars 94 (10-4) St. John's Red Storm 72 (10-3) Oh, what a difference a healthy Kyron Cartwright and Alpha Diallo make.
