About this listen

The Big East gauntlet is officially underway! On this week’s episode of Big East Energy Weekly, we’re diving deep into a conference that finally feels like it’s trending in the right direction. We kick things off by breaking down the absolute thriller between Butler and Providence, where Finley Bizjack and Michael Ajayi—who we’re officially calling the "Charles Barkley incarnate"—led the Bulldogs to a massive double-overtime victory. We discuss whether Thad Matta has found a secret weapon in Ajayi and if his physicality will be enough to give Alex Karaban fits in tonight’s matchup against UConn. Is history repeating itself in the Big East, or are we seeing a power shift? We tackle the tough questions surrounding the "disappointing" starts for teams like St. John’s and DePaul. While some analysts had Rick Pitino’s squad ranked as high as #1 in the country preseason, we debate whether they’ve actually looked like a top-ten team yet. Plus, we give our raw, unfiltered predictions for the UConn vs. Butler game at a "hornet's nest" in Hartford—discussing everything from the 15.5-point line to the impact of Butler losing their point guard, Jackson.
