I feel like they should beat Syracuse, but all the other games are tough to call.  UCONN at home is a positive, but PITT and LOUISVILLE on the road will be very tough, but that's where an experienced team can go in there and win.  I just don't see how they can even contain Blair....

Remember that tremendous comeback we had at Louisville a few years ago when Novak started draining like mad.  Yes We Can!!!

UConn game is going to have such a big crowd and be so wild. I think Cuse at home is a W. Again a large *tearful?* crowd will be super.

We have played Pitt very well in the past, same thing with Lville. I think 2 wins is the logical choice, but don't discount 3 or all 4 so quickly.

Officially I'm saying 2, because I'd be fine with a split, but I think they're capable of winning all 4.

If we win the next three we clinch conference.

I got faith in our senior laden squad...but playing in Freedom Hall is always tough for us. 

I think we could lose this one by 15+...with their interior post presence of Clark, Samuels, and Jennings, too much for us to handle.

if all those guys show up. That's the thing w/ L'ville, they have one of the scariest teams to play against when all those guys are playing well. On the other hand, if one or two of them have an off night, they can downright stink up the place.  I would say if we can limit the damage Williams does and take one of the above 3 completely out of the game, we have a good shot at winning.

If you take the games one at a time, I would say we'll go 1-3.  But I think we'll get one of the UConn, Louisville or Pitt games plus beat Syracuse.

I can see us taking at least two of the last four games. I believe we can win all of these games based on pure talent and experience, but playing at Freedom Hall and at the Peterson Events Center scares me.

This year will mark the 4th time in 4 years in the Big East that Marquette has played at Louisville. The Cardinal has only made two trips to the Bradley Center in the same 4 years. I hope we can pull that one out. (Same holds true for ND by the way)

These final 4 are killers, especially Loserville, UCONN and Pitt.

Those optimists that are picking us to win all 4--where can we all get what they are smoking? But hey, why not wish for it? (The 4 wins--not what they are smoking)

Should take care of business vs. Syracuse.

Most likely will win 1 of the 3 remaining games (I'm thinking UCONN)

3-2 in the last 5 would be a great finish and should wrap up a 3 seed even if with a 1 and done in the BET.

4-1 should be a 2 seed, possibly a 1 with a run in the conference tourny
