The Christmas break has come and gone, and Villanova and Butler hope to right the ship on New Year’s Day when they face off in a Big East Conference matchup Wednesday in Indianapolis.Villanova (8-5, 1-1) comes in off an 86-79 conference loss at Creighton on Dec. 21, allowing the Bluejays to shoot 56 percent from beyond the arc.”I thought we got a lot of good stuff offensively,” Villanova coach Kyle Neptune said. “I don’t know if that’s the best recipe, trying to outscore teams and not getting stops.”Butler (7-6, 0-2) enters on a five-game skid. The Bulldogs started conference play against the top two teams, falling at then-No. 9 Marquette 80-70 on Dec. 18 and losing 78-74 against then-No. 11 UConn on Dec. 21.The Bulldogs outscored the Huskies 41-36 in the second half and rallied from down 16 to tie the game, but allowed UConn to hit 45.8 percent of its 3-point attempts.”I did think we did a good job of getting ourselves back in the game and putting ourselves in position to win a basketball game,” Butler coach Thad Matta said.Jahmyl Telfort leads Butler with 15.5 points and 3.4 assists per game. Andre Screen is solid down low, averaging 6.2 boards and 1.6 blocks per game.
