Viewing Guide: How to watch Creighton vs. Villanova

Daniel Ochefu is definitely out for Villanova vs. Creighton, but the Wildcats will like their chances against the Bluejays in the Pavilion on Wednesday night. Though 'Nova looked sloppy at times vs. St. John's, Darryl Reynolds, Kris Jenkins and Josh Hart have looked willing to pick up the slack down low with the big man out.

Creighton is playing for their NCAA Tournament lives after losing two straight to fellow bubble teams Georgetown and Seton Hall. They might be without their starting center Geoffrey Groselle as well, but Maurice Watson is more than capable of carrying the team to a victory.

With a trip to Providence on deck for the 'Cats - and Ochefu's concussion protocol still ongoing - they can't afford to look ahead.

Game Time, TV Schedule: 8:00pm ET. The game will be aired on CBS Sports Network.

BEVERAGE OF CHOICE

Bourbon Manhattan

Going back to one of my staples. I'm oddly nervous about this game having just seen the 'Cats live for the first time. So nothing better than a stiff cocktail to numb my feelings.

I've got some Bulleit handy in my house. I've seen people say you actually want to measure out the bourbon, vermouth and bitters but that's no fun. More bourbon, less vermouth, less bitters. You'll have more fun this way.
