Chances we do a 2011 UCONN?????

As the Aussies would say... "Buckley's chance"

Creighton nailed our BET chances shut.

We needed to be a 6 seed to have any shot.

Go 3 and 2 the rest of the way, 8-10 might get us past 2 of Georgetown, Providence and Butler. Especially because going 3-2 the rest of the way (and likely beating Butler/Gtown along the way) would give us the tiebreaker in a 3 way tie.

Providence Schedule:

@ Xavier
@ Seton Hall
Creighton
DePaul
St. John's

Can they go 1-4? Probably unlikely. Guessing 2-3/3-2

Butler Schedule:

@ Villanova
@ Georgetown
Seton Hall
Marquette

Can they go 1-3? If we beat them, yes. We could pass Butler with a 3-2 finish

Georgetown Schedule:

Seton Hall
Xavier
Butler
Marquette
@ Nova

Can they go 1-4? Depends on tonight. Need to lose tonight and lose to us. Realistically we'd probably have to get to 9-9, but I think 7-11 is the most likely.

So, there's a chance. But yeah, it's real unlikely now.

While it was no doubt a crushing defeat, we really need to get to the 7.

SJU in the 7/10 game; then get X the next night.  I actually wouldn't hate our chances against X on a neutral court. I am a big X fan and think they're one of the better teams in the country, but I also think we match us decently with them.   The problem then becomes winning 2 more, which is no doubt a tall task.  Getting the 6 would be much better, but at this point unlikely.

That's why I wanted the 6 real bad.

Sure the 3 would be tough especially if it's SHU who kinda owns us. But only have to win 3 games.

We would get X before Nova. There is a chance the 7 beats X and TWO chances for Nova to be upset.

It's a long shot anyway you look at it. But having to win 3 instead of 4 and not ever being guaranteed to face X or Nova was the best route.

There is absolutely zero chance we would get in at 8-10. None whatsoever. There is a better chance they would leave all four teams out than let us in with an 8-10 record. Less than 20 wins and a sub-100 RPI? We'd be lucky to get into the NIT with that.

I think you misunderstood what he is saying.  He is talking about getting the 6 seed, no getting a bid to the NCAAs.

I was talking about getting to 6th in conference for an easier BET run.

Gotcha, complete misunderstanding on my point.
