The second day of the 2012 Big East Tournament arrives on Wednesday. Wednesday's nightcap will pit the No. 14 Villanova Wildcats against the No. 6 South Florida Bulls. Only one of these teams will be able to advance to the quarterfinals and keep their hopes alive for the conference championship and a 2012 NCAA Tournament bid.

These two teams faced off twice during the 2011-12 Big East regular season and the Bulls handily picked up a win in both games. South Florida defeated Villanova 74-57 in January and 65-51 in February.

The game will tip off at 9:00 p.m. ET and will be televised nationally on ESPN.

The winner of the game will go on to face No. 3 Notre Dame Fighting Irish in the quarterfinals on Thursday.
