Avast!  X in panic mode right now.... going to be tough for the Pirates to hold on...let's go SH.

[PGsHeroes32]

This games over.

We still got a chance at 3rd.

SH up 10 with 2:20 to go

MU is easily in the tournament if Sterling Gibbs was running the point. Only change on this team. But I am also of the belief that Duane Wilson would have led this team admirably.

[River rat]

I wonder how much Ners put on this "lock" for X??

[RushmoreAcademy]

Nice job SH.
Edwin's last home game.   Great player. Here's an article about his frustration with his time there:

The Hall winning some key games for us down the stretch.

Yeah--wonder when we will start winning some!

You guys ever stop to think that maybe the NCAA  might only take two Big East teams this year?

Just a thought.

Doable, aina?

No way.  I think three is possible though which would be a major disappointment.  We need to at least get four... anything less and that is a bad start to the new conference.

Absolutely not a chance.  I will give you 10:1 on your money.

Big guy Stainbrook hurt for X. Doesn't look good. MRI on tap. That's a shame. Big blow to X.

+1, three is definitely possible but I imagine a 4th sneaks in as a 12 or 13 seed.

Chicos, you gotta be kidding. Only legitimate NCAA teams are Villanova and Creighton. Xavier went down tonight at the Hall and even assuming we win the next two, we still haven't beaten anyone.

St. John's and Providence -- their resumes look like someone who soon will be affixing dishes to roofs for DirectTV -- not people who are candidates for your chairman.

For all of the bluster in here -- and NO I AM NOT BETTING ON WHAT A BUNCH OF POLITICALLY CORRECT PINHEADS WILL DO -- I still think the Big East gets 2. That's it. Face it, our conference had a down year.Too many teams too much like us in the conference this year.

Xavier is going to get in.  Not kidding at all.  44 RPI, wins over Cincinnati, Tennessee, St. John's (2), Marquette, Creighton, Providence, Georgetown....I think they get in.  They finish up with Villanova at home. 

Losing tonight isn't great, but I don't think it knocks them out by any stretch.

The 4th team I'm hoping can sneak in.  Tough to see 5 teams, but have to hope between Providence, SJU, MU, G'Town that someone can find a way.

Chicos has already informed your ignorance on X's resume.  I'll also add that while you feel losing to SHU is like losing to the Little Sisters of the Poor, they actually are ranked #80 in kenpom.

I think Xavier gets in, but they will be sweating on selection day, if they lose to Villanova and the first round Big East tournament game. 20-12 is not a great record unless you are playing in the Big 10.

[NavinRJohnson]

Xavier will likely make it regardless, but if they do drop another two in a row, they will have good reason to be a bit nervous.

Marquette can all but eliminate Providence and St. John's by beating them. Worst case for the conference would likely be MU winning their last two and then losing their first game in the BET.

Three teams still looks likely, and four is possible, but two is also not outside the realm of possibilities.

[MarsupialMadness]
