It's safe to say the Georgetown Hoyas and Louisville Cardinals had pretty good weekends. On Saturday they both secured road upsets over top-10 Big East rivals, with the Hoyas beating the Villanova Wildcats 69-66 and the Cards outlasting the Connecticut Huskies 79-78 in double overtime.

Tonight at 7 pm ET we’ll find out who can keep the momentum going. Both teams started the year hot before hitting a rough stretch, and this game will go a long way toward deciding if one of them is back on track. This is their first and only meeting in this regular season.
This is the only sixth road game of the season for Rick Pitino’s bunch, which clearly likes the school’s KFC Yum! Center as much as fast food nation does. They’ve gone 3-2 away from The Yum.
Your players to watch: Georgetown's Austin Freeman, who scored 29 points in last year's Hoyas win in Kentucky, and Louisville's Payton Siva, whose 19 points and seven assists out-boxscore'd Kemba Walker on Saturday.
