The Way I See It: The Big East's Power Rankings (Dec. 13)

Well this week we had a few teams look really impressive such as Syracuse and Georgetown, as well as a few that didn’t such as USF and Notre Dame.

Villanova really struggled in their loss to Temple, as did Louisville who this week loss both of its games. Seton Hall will get a test finally this week when they face Temple, as will Cincinnati when UAB comes calling. It’ll be another exciting week for the Big East and conference play gets even closer.
