Title: Bilas' Top 68 Updated
Post by: brewcity77 on January 22, 2012, 03:02:05 PM
I was going to add this to the last thread, but considering how that went, I thought it would be better to just start a new one. Here's what he had to say about us:

15. Marquette Golden Eagles

Marquette has won four in a row after being questioned. This is a tough-minded group that simply outworks people and outperforms the overall numbers. I have this team rated higher than both Sagarin and Kenpom.com.

His top ten are UK, 'Cuse, tOSU, Mizzou, Kansas, UNC, MSU, Baylor, Duke, and West Virginia ( :o ).

Other Big East teams are GT at 11, UConn at 18, Cincy 31, Seton Hall 32, Louisville 34, and Notre Dame rounds out the field at 68. Bucky came in 27.

While I don't agree that WVU is a top 10 team, I do feel they could be scary.  Can count of Kevin Jones for 20 and 11 along with Bryant putting up points and if someone else on the team goes off, look out.  Wouldn't be surprised to see them do well in the Big East tourney or the NCAAs.

Bilas loves us. 

And WVU is legit.  Very balanced, well coached (yeah, Huggy-bear is a good coach) soiid team with experienced PG, alpha dog player in K. Jones, and Kilicli is a skilled big.  They have all the ingredients to make a deep run.
