X loses n removes another bubble team that might steal a bid from us or X loses n makes our wins against them less impressive.
Or x wins n verifies our two wins on them?
X.
MU is a lock. Time to stop worrying about teams stealing our bid. Seriously.
Rot for X why? 7 teams ur saying?
Given ur research how does wakes loss effect them?
Because it's better for the BE. And we beat X twice, and a loss to Depaul hurts their profile. X isn't moving ahead of MU, and a Depaul win does nothing for anybody.
It's not critical, because MU is dancing regardless, but rooting for X makes far more sense than Depaul.
X winning helps all teams in Big East

Yep. Get those tourney credits.
7 in the dance sends a huge message. Right now, I am rooting for every scenario that gets more Big East teams in. As long as MU wins. ;D

Would love to see 7 Big East teams in the S16.

Yeah but 6 of 'em will be too distraught over not winning the BET.

Hahaha, I'm not so sure the committee would allow all 7 BE teams a clear line to the Elite 8 without a couple of us playing each other in the round of 16....
But that would be awesome if we place 7 in the E8!!! Suck it ACC!!!!

I'm unclear what the variable "n" represents in this situation.

He simplified the equation, the original is: 2an3d=3an4d

They should, though. The only way conference teams should be able to meet before the Elite 8 is with 9+ bids. Keep conference mates apart.
