Can The Big East Get Seven Teams In?

[JamilJaeJamailJrJuan]

I think that's pushing it. A lot of brackets still have us as a 10 or 11. Going to take a few wins at the BET to move up to a 7.

I think if we beat Creighton, we are probably at best a 9 going into the BET. If we lose, we are an 11, possibly playing in Dayton.

I think a win on Saturday pretty much clinches no Dayton for us.  We have a significantly better resume than the last four teams in currently.

I agree, and that's what I just said. I said with a win we are probably a 9 or 10, and with a loss, we are probably an 11, possibly in Dayton. Not sure what the point of your post is.

Just misread your post.  My bad.

Its ok. To the original question, in my opinion, moving all the way up to a 7 will probably take at least 2 wins in the BET.

Please let this bracket happen

At this point I think the only ones at risk are X and PC. MU and SHs last games are against good opponents. A loss doesn't hurt us.

[GooooMarquette]

What are the final games on Saturday? I know we play Creighton and X plays Depaul.

Nova @ GTown
PC @SJU
SHU @ Butler

[willie warrior]

True, but they'll clobber DePaul this weekend, and likely squeak into the NCAA.  But even if they don't I'd rather MU makes it than X.

Don't think Beast gets 7, and Xavier should not make it.

[RideMyBuycks]

I think they got 7 after today.

[Herman Cain]

Quality road win for the Hall. Helps MU.

No it doesn't.
