Palm has us as a 4 and ISU as the 5.

I thought that was juicy before ISU had another offensively inept game.

They may have the most rancid offense of all time for a ranked team

Unfortuntely I do not see any way their 3-7 conference record keeps them in a seed position where we could play them.

That dang banked in 3 by Texas helped knock us off Lunardi’s 4 Seed Line

Marquette is still a 5 seed on Bracket Matrix. But it will be hard to maintain that. No games until the BET that would really improve our seed, and any losses open the door for teams to pass us.

I'm thinking a 6 seed, barring a BET run.

It was fun to see the 4 and 5 seed predictions and the 5 seed could still happen but all along, I have not taken the projections seriously. There are still more than enough games left in the BE as well as other conferences to affect our seeding. Agree that 6 seed is a good guess.

I think 6 is most likely as well, but we're still in play for a 4. Winning out would put MU at 22-8, possibly picking up another Q1 and a couple more Q2 wins along the way.

Lunardi has usually been wrong about
where MU gets seeded in the past ...

If he thinks MU is a 6 today, I will go with a 5

They just need to bounce back and beat Butler tomorrow.  Go from there

I disagree. The teams around us have a number of 50/50 type games, some against each other. This time of year, if you keep winning, you move up more because other teams are moving down rather than just your own results. I think the 4/5 lines are most likely at this point. Even 4-2 probably leaves us a 6 at worst.

Thanks for the info Brew! This is encouraging. So our upside chances are probably better than our downside chances? Love it!.

IF we take care of business down the stretch we very much are in play for the 4/5 seeds.

If we did go 6-0(not counting on it) I would be pretty stunned if we were not on the 4 line.

If MU went 4-2 and then lost their first BE tourney game, they'd move down to a 7-8 seed.

That's exactly what I was thinking. It's not as if Marquette operates in a vacuum.

I'm fully expecting a 4-2 finish. There will be on head scratching loss where Marquette doesn't play there best, and another where the opponent just can't miss.

I'm expecting one of Uconn and Xavier to pass us. I'm also expecting one of Ohio St, Alabama, and LSU to pass us.

I also think Texas sneaks past us on the S-Curve, which would put Marquette as the top 6 seed in Bracket Matrix.

Marquette has very little margin for error when it comes to staying on the 5 line before the BET. But the BET could moves us back up a line with a win or two.

It's possible, but my guess is we would still be a 6 at that point, but probably one of the last 6s. I think 6-7 would be more accurate to say than 7-8.

I'd rather be a 6 and not face a 1 until the E8. I very much like our chances to beat an 11, 3 and 2, even without upsets

Crean and Buzz had clunkers, too.

But now that I think about it, UConn couldn't miss so we may have gotten that game out of the way.

Nope. That loss not only knocked us out of this year's tournament, but next year's too.
