......And the reality is that the Panthers -- with a national-best six victories against the Top 25 of the CBSSports.com RPI -- are still in solid shape to earn a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament. That's the good news. But their margin for error has become smaller because of this awful performance Tuesday night, and now Connecticut, North Carolina, Memphis and perhaps even Louisville or Marquette -- honestly, who knows? -- are in position to possibly become the seventh new No. 1 when the polls are updated next week, although it's getting to the point where it's difficult to find anybody who seems worthy of the honor.

Four of the six teams mentioned for #1 seeds are Big East ... Nice!
(Especially since MU is one of the six - I was happy at looking at a three seed)
If we beat UConn and Louisville, it would be hard to keep us from a 1 seed in the tourney and for consideration for the 1 seed
Wins over UConn and Louisville this week along with Pitt and Oklahoma losing will probably get us to at least a number 3 ranking in both polls come this Monday.
I hate speaking in Hypothetical.
The amaxing thing is he wasn't talking about a #1 seed. He was talking about being RANKED #1!!
I just want the double bye.
