Two games tonight for PC to get some RPI assistance.

#pcbb Links of the Day 2/28/14

The Friars (18-10, RPI 60, SOS 68) represent the muddled middle of the new Big East. With its best wins at home, Providence clearly has more work to do. I’m not optimistic given two of the Friars’ remaining three games are on the road (at Seton Hall, at Creighton), the second of which is Doug McDermotts senior night.

What they need: Three more wins, regardless of opponent or location. The Friars are going down to the wire.
