I haven't exactly studied the other teams but seems like a pretty good draw for our young team. The home and home are not the #1 or #2 team in the league and the road schedule is OK. Can't wait to see it start.
I think this schedule is pretty good. I could see 7-2 at home and 3-6 away for a 10-8 record.

Villanova is not the #1 or #2 team in the Big East next year? Are you crazy? We will get killed both at the BC and in Philadelphia. But other than that the BE really is wide open to speculation as of right now so no devastating news here.

Villanova is one of the favorites to win the Big East and the National Championship..
