I am not sure if you guys agree, but in my opinion MU is a lock to go dancing with 2 wins in its next 4 games. All four games will be with other potential BE bubble teams (ND and SH still with a fighting chance) so I think its a fairly safe assumption
2-1 in the last three and MU finishes 11-7 in conference and still gets in with a first round loss in the conf tourney
1-2 in the last three and MU finishes 10-8 and needs to win that first game
0-3 in the last 3 leads to a 9-9 finish and prob requires 3 wins in the BE tournament (trip to the semis as we would prob play day 1)
Also, in my opinion options 1,2, &3 put marquette in the 10-12 seed range
However, if MU finishes 3-0 and wins a couple in the BE tourney, or 2-1 and goes to atleast the semis in the BE tourney, the seed will be 9 or higher, with the ceiling being right around a 4 or 5 seed (need to go 3-0 and win the conf tournament)
Confused yet?
also can hope for MU to win out and see West virginia lose 2 of their last three. could happen cause they play g-town and nova still. We would end up with the 4 seed and the double bye. One more scenario to root for...and it's not even that far-fetched.
