Tomorrow and NCAA seeding

[DonCornholeone]

I would assume today locked us into a 7 at worst.

A dubya tomorrow would bump us to a 6.

But the committee likes to give us the screwgie when it comes to seeding.

I really, really, really want another shot at Louisville.

Hypothetical:  If we won the Big East tourney, we'd have wins over Nova, Louisville and Pitt/UConn... I'd say we get a 4 or maybe even a 3?

It's great to see Coobs with some of the old swagger... add that to Burke's flashes and The Jimmy Butler Show, our "secondary" guys are giving us stuff we can use.

I think this team found some confidence today.I say were no worse than a 7.Win tomorrow and probbaly get to a 6.We'll show the commitee we can win a couple without DJ.The best we can do is get back to a 5.IMO

this may be incredibly optimistic but I think we win tomorrow as Reynolds will not shoot lights out like he did against us @ Nova and we play L'ville close and could receive a 4 seed.  I think if we can beat Nova, we get more respect from the committee.

I like our chances tomorrow like 87 I dont think Reynolds will have another insane game but we cant let fisher tear us up again neither he dropped 21 against us both times he played us.

We can let Dante get his as long as we can guard those two, plus i do like the fact that JB hit a deep 2pt jumper maybe he will attempt a 3

As of now....we are a 6/7....probably 7 because we are Marquette

win tomorrow we are a 5

beat Louisville we are a 4

win the whole thing and we are a 3.

If we win today, does that mean we'll get a lower seed than Nova?  If Nova loses and ends up a 4 seed, then we should be no higher than a 5 seed, right?

no wins in the BET = 7 seed... maybe 8 if its a big loss.

1 win in the BET = 6 seed

2 wins in the BET 4 or 5 seed

Win the BET and we are a 3 or a 4

Tough to say.  Nova has no major non-conference wins, and we only finished 1 game behind them.  So there is a chance that we could be seeded better than them if we win.  With a win I think the lowest seed we "should" get would be a 5.
