Rutgers senior Jonathan Mitchell hit a 3 pointer with almost no time left in the game and was fouled by Corey Fisher. Mitchell then hit the tiebreaker from the free throw line, and after a desperation inbound toss from Nova, the game was over and the students stormed the court. This was a huge upset for Rutgers over #10 ranked Villanova and quite possibly the highlight of their season. Villanova has a tough matchup in 2 days against #4 Pitt who is also 1st in the Big East. Games like this just go to show that the Big East is one of the best conferences in mens basketball, with strong teams from top to bottom. March Madness is only a few short weeks away and as of now it looks like the Big East could have twice as many teams then any other conference with 9 or 10 in the big dance. One of the best times of the year is those 4 days in March when teams battle in the 1st and 2nd round of the tourny. Get ready to fill those brackets out....
