A good effort.  I'd say 22-9, 11-7, 7 seed, loss in the rd of 32.

So do your game by game and include all 20 Big East games

[MU82]

I think there is a reasonable chance we make the NCAA tournament. However, some posters are predicting an NCAA tournament seed of 8 or higher. This does not seem reasonable to me. The latest bracketology has Creighton & Villanova as 4 seeds, Xavier & Uconn as 7 seeds and St. John's as an 11. We can easily replace St. John's, but the Big East as a whole is not getting a lot of respect. This will make it very hard for MU to get a top 8 seed, without a top 4 finish in the Big East.

Great points.

Season's already over folks. Please drive home safely.

Interesting seeing everyone pick us to lose to a Purdue team that has very few minutes returning. Since 2007-08, Purdue is 9-26 against high majors with 5 buy game losses in non-con when they are outside the top-100 in minutes continuity, which they certainly will be this year. In their first game against a high major team they are 1-8.

When Painter has an inexperienced team, they tend to struggle a lot in non-con.

I know I am nitpicking, but you need to flip your overall and BE records.

If I had read Brew's comments about Purdue before posting my prediction, I admit I would have taken a chance and put a W in front of that game. I went with Road game@ Purdue w/Painter as coach= L.

Where does Mu's team rank this year with respect to minutes continuity?.....JLew, Darrell and Kur posted a lot of minutes for us, no?

Has there ever been a non-AQ 13 seed?

[brewcity77]

Has there ever been a non-AQ 13 seed?

No, but there has been a non-AQ 14-seed. BYU won a play in game as a 14 and faced Jae & DJO as the 2012 3-seed. However that was because BYU had to play the Thursday/Saturday games due to religion.

Even Georgetown and Oregon State, both probably deserving of 13s, got 12-seeds as AQs in 2021. Any bid we get would be 12 at worst.

[Shooter McGavin]

People told me the same last year because I saw a tourney team in October.

Ha! Those predictions may effect your credibility on bracketology.  I really hope you are right though Brew.

That would be the going down the toilet stage passing the the regression stage.  Hope you are wrong because that would be really ominous for future years.

[wadesworld]

Marquette hasn't exactly killed it in their first true road games in recent seasons.

[mileskishnish72]

Hope you are wrong

I often am, Shooter. Very worried about the lack of returning scorers and rebounding. I do tend to think that what I've seen is what I'm gonna see, but kids do develop
and if 2 or 3 take big steps, I'll be way off.
