1) Pittsburgh (12): 237 pts.
2) Marquette (3): 221 pts.
3) Notre Dame: 207 pts.
4) Georgetown: 187 pts.

12) Seton Hall: 70 pts.
13) St. John's: 63 pts.
14) Cincinnati: 43 pts.
15) South Florida: 32 pts.
16) Rutgers: 20 pts.

BIG EAST PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Dominic James. Marquette.
BIG EAST FRESHMAN OF THE WEEK: Scottie Reynolds, Villanova.

Irish also fell to 22nd in the AP poll and 21st in the Coaches Poll. Nice to see that the loss to Villanova didn't hurt us much in terms of national rankings. Analysts around the country seem to be giving ND a bit more credit with the nice win over USF yesterday.
