Here’s the only important question; were the MU reporters gentle to Woj in the post game?

They have to be - have you seen his neck?

Making the Tournament should not be the goal, rather that should be a given. Now, win and advance should be the focus. This year's team is not Tourney worthy.

At this point we need to close the season out red hot. We need to run the table regular season and get to the Big East Tournament Final.  Today was not an embarassing loss. The Johnnies have been playing well and that small arena was very loud and a true road environment.

But we'll still finish 3rd in the Big East and get to the Sweet 16.

It seems so, so long ago when Vander Blue was talking about how making it to the Sweet 16 wasn't good enough. That the team needed to find a way to get past the sweet 16.

You're kidding right? this team has lost 5 of 6 and you're talking about making it to the BEAST finals?

This team also "needs" to not lose another game and win the national championship, but it's never going to happen.

That's all she wrote for the post season guys.  Pack it up!

No NIT?   We are not going to the Big East tournament?  NCAA already gone?  You know something know one else knows?

I think we can still get to that goal if we win out. Although we need a little help from the teams above us losing. But, hey ,appreciate the help.

Did you watch today's game and do you know who Creighton is? If so, I'm not sure how you could draw these types of conclusions.
I think we can beat Creighton at least once and maybe twice. They are good, but like Seton Hall Creighton is not a bad matchup for us.

MU won't beat Creighton after 7 days off!  7 days!  That's way too long.  Remember the last time they had time off they soiled the bed in Cinci.

This team is too young to win after 7 days off.  3 max.  No less than 1.

Before teams game I divided the season into three two game sets:
St John's away & home
Creighton away & home
@DePaul & @Georgetown

I figure to get a bid we needed to sweep one of these sets and split the two others along with a first round tournament win. Losing to St. John's hurts, but does not change this scenario. What hurts is that DePaul and Georgetown also won today. I figure the one silver lining would be if we lost to St. John's they would get out of the 10th spot. We are likely to finish 7th and that means we play the 10th place team in the first round of Big East tournament. Playing St. John's at Madison Square Garden is a game I do not want to see. St. John's plays @DePaul next and they will be tied with DePaul if they win this game. I think, if they finished tied with DePaul their win over Villanova will be the tie breaker. With Georgetown winning there is a possibility that we end up tied with Georgetown. It is too early to determine the tie breaker, if this happens.

Creighton also has 7 days off and is also coming off their first loss at home.

No NIT.

NCAA is a dream, Chicos.

I know what a lot of people around here know, we're cooked.

Meh.

I predicted NIT this season I'm ok with it. Many of us expected it really.


Same here.  NIT will happen for sure.  http://www.nycbuckets.com/current-nit-bracketology/


NCAA still a shot, though fleeting.
