If you look at cracked sidewalks projected 6/7/10/11 seeds most of them are closer to Omaha than Indy. Granted, many are still very far away- coming from the west coast etc- but still closer to Omaha than Indy.

As I said it's mainly Mich st and Sconnie that are the concerns in Indy with Kentucky and Illinois falling into seed lines that won't see Marquette in the first 2 rds.

Sconnie would be a wash because that could be an issue in Omaha too. MSU is really the main disaster scenario in Indy.

We have the advantage over Iowa State. They had an absolute trash non-conference schedule.

I don't want Mich St in the tournament..

No thanks

Move the game to Breslin as far as I'm concerned.

There is one team that I don't think MU can beat on a neutral floor.    Look who MU has beaten.   Look how close MU came against Purdue.   So, if TKo comes back and Kam/Oso stay hot, I only fear UConn on a neutral floor.  Everybody else...MU may not win, but I am not afraid of them.

I'd be more concerned about the players who get out on work release before the NCAA. ;D

Yep.

And I'm not even "afraid" of UConn. If we play them, it wouldn't be until the Final Four. And if we're playing well enough to have made the Final Four, I won't be "afraid" to play them.

I'm less afraid of UConn than Houston. UConn still wants to play basketball. Houston wants to wrestle.

I agree with this. It's the devil you know vs the devil you don't. Houston feels like a champion pedigree team to me.

They may want to wrestle, but if the refs are calling it tight, will they be able to?

In another thread (I think), there was a brief discussion of NCAAT officiating and Big East teams. I don't know about other BEast teams, but IMHO Marquette will benefit from tighter-called games if that's what we see in the NCAA. If Kolek gets even a third of the calls when he's clearly bumped/pushed during drives - calls he just about never got in BEast games - it will help us a lot.

I'm not so sure.  At this point, Marquette is very accustomed to playing physical games.  We already have a short bench of three... If a game gets called tight, I could see us in a heap of trouble because we won't be able to play defense the way we have been.  Aggressively.

Juan Anderson's Mixtape

A lot of games, Marquette starts off as the less physical team.  Think of some of the double digit deficits, like St. John's at home.  Then, Marquette sees how the game is being called, adjusts their physicality, and comes back to win.

I don't think Marquette will have any trouble adjusting to a less physical game because that's best for our style. 

Someone like Seton Hall, however, will really struggle since they rely upon their physicality.  I think that explains why Seton Hall went 13-7 in BE but only 1-4 against high majors in non-conference play.

As a Marquette fan who would prefer a run to the national title, I like my take better than yours!

I'm not afraid of UConn. We can definitely beat them, and having prepped for them twice, our team and staff won't be afraid.

Houston is the only team I fear. I think they're the scariest team in the country.

Non Big East officiating as an advantage? It depends.

Refs that call it tight when drivers get hacked or bodied on layups and dunks? Huge advantage

Refs that like to call ticky tack calls 35 feet from the basket? Huge disadvantage

I know what you mean about Houston - they are physically imposing - but I also think there's a decent chance that they get knocked out in the 16 or 8 rounds due to poor shooting by them and very good shooting by their opponent. It happened last year in a double-digit loss to Miami, and it could happen again.

If they run into a team with multiple NBA level shot makers, I agree. But I think their offense is better than last year, so it'll probably take someone like Kentucky being there.

Wild card is if Colorado is a 12-seed play in that upsets a 5 & 4 before seeing Houston.

Duke and Creighton losing sure doesn't hurt for our chances of a 2.

Right now, Marquette should be big fans of anyone playing against Iowa State, Baylor, and Kentucky. Those are the only teams that could catch us for a 2-seed. And if Kentucky did pass us, they go to Indy.
