What do ya think
im going 8, everyone keeps calling SHU and ND an elimination game, unless ND loses by a couple, then maybe 9. We did have a shot at 10 til USF lost today.
8 or 9 but I'm leaning towards 8 because I don't think Seton Hall will beat Notre Dame.

(...and by that I dont mean 8+1=9, I just mean I agree with that list.)
9. The bubble is ridiculously weak this year. sHU is in.
Going into today, I thought that if USF and SHU won their respective games, there was an outside shot the Big East could get 10.
Given today's results, 8 is an absolute certainty. Also, depending on how soft the bubble turns out to be, Seton Hall could make it 9 because of the strength of some of their wins (Louisville, Pitt, @ Cornell), and no real bad losses from an RPI perspective.
A Cincy win tonight and maybe tomorrow and they're in the picture.
8 unless UC goes nuts and wins the tourney. Only two teams have gotten in in the last 16 years as an at-large with 14 or more losses, and both of those two had RPIs in the 40s and SOS of 1 or 2, neither of which will apply to UC.
